Having not played since the 2024 Miami Open, and recently married while currently pregnant, Camila Giorgi has revealed via an Instagram Q&A that she will return to tennis in 2027.
In an Instagram Q&A, Giorgi was asked whether she plans to return to tournament tennis in the future. The 34-year-old responded clearly: “Yes, in 2027.” The announcement comes as a major surprise, since the Italian is currently pregnant and had previously stepped away from the sport without any formal retirement statement. Her absence from the tour was first noticed when her name appeared on the International Tennis Integrity Agency’s list of retired players as of May 7, 2024. Her decision to target a comeback is unexpected, especially given that she has recently married Argentine coach Andreas Ignacio Pasutti and has yet to give birth to her first child.
This comeback news comes shortly after she revealed in March that she is launching tennis camps in Mallorca, Spain. At the time, she wrote: “Expect intense training, good vibes, lots of tennis… and maybe a few tough sessions too. I’ll be on court with you, sharing my experience from the tour and helping you push your game to the next level.”
Giorgi won four WTA titles in her career, the biggest one being the 2021 National Bank Open in Montreal. Other three include Merida 2023, Linz 2018 and ‘s-Hertogenbosch 2015. Her best performance at a Grand Slam was a quarterfinal showing at Wimbledon 2018. Her highest singles ranking was No.26 achieved in October 2018.
