Hello and welcome back to the Irish Tennis Updates Podcast. This episode I’ve been chatting to Simon Carr, who recently retired from pro tennis after several years as the Irish ATP number one player. Simon was on the show before, during the first lockdown in 2020, and it great to catch up with him again and hear how his last few years have gone. We talk about his injury struggles, his highs and lows in tennis since 2020 and the difficult decision to retire from tennis. He mentions Davis Cup as a big motivation that kept him in the game. We also talk about what’s next for Simon. If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe to the show and leave a comment on iTunes. Also, share the show with anyone you think may be interested.
