A Tribute to the New Retirees: Schwartzman, Edmund, Ramos-Vinolas and Several Doubles Figures Honored in Turin
The Turin Masters hosted a ceremony dedicated to the players who retired this season: Schwartzman, Edmund, but also Farah, Cabal, or Koolhof, all honored for their careers and their contributions to tennis.
At each edition of the Masters, the ATP honors several players who have recently retired. This year, eight players had the chance to have a short tribute ceremony on the court in Turin.
Among them were Diego Schwartzman, Kyle Edmund, and Albert Ramos-Vinolas, all three of whom ended their careers this season.
However, two notable names were missing from the list: Richard Gasquet and Fabio Fognini.
The tribute also included several doubles specialists, among them former partners and world No. 1s Robert Farah and Juan Sebastián Cabal, the Dutchmen Wesley Koolhof and Matwe Middelkoop, as well as the Pakistani Aisam-Ul-Haq Qureshi.
