’probablys * . . My mind is made up.
The 1966 U.S. Open will be my final
tournament,’’ Evert wrote in the

Evert. 34, will still represent the
United States in the Federation Cup
in Tokyo in October. She and Mar
tina Navratilova will play exhibition
matches this fall and winter, and she
may make a cameo appearance at a
tournament in Boca Raton. Fla .
where she lives
"But as for Chris Evert, serious
competitor, yes. I guess I really am
outta here," she wrote
"I don't feel the same intensity. . .
I know I’ve lost some confidence,
and I just don’t want to pay the price
any roore."
A native of Fort Lauderdale. Fla ,
Evert has won more matches and
more tournaments than any other
player, male or female. She has won
the U.S Open six times, Wimbledon
three times, the Australian Open
twice and the French Open a record
seven times.
