The defeat to Diane Parry was the last match of Petra Kvitova's 19-year career, during which she won Wimbledon twice, in 2011 and 2014, among others.
"I hoped I could put on a better show today. It was very hard to know that it could be my last match, emotionally it was very difficult. I am happy that I had my last 'dance' in New York. Thank you to everyone, my husband and coach, agent, family. They sacrificed a lot for me. It has been a fascinating journey, thank you!" said Petra Kvitova after her last career match.
Petra Kvitova won a total of 31 WTA titles and earned 37.45 million dollars from tennis.
