Injuries have taken their toll on the 24 year old.
"That's life, and that's sport, and that's how it goes sometimes".
Mullingar's Simon Carr is reflecting on a tennis career of missed opportunities after announcing his retirement from the sport at the age of 24.
Carr's career-high ranking was 512, and his sole title on the ITF Tour came on the clay courts of Tabarka in Tunisia in 2019.
However injuries began to take their toll on the Westmeath man.
He suffered a lower back fracture, torn hamstrings, as well issues with his hips.
Carr is philosophical about what he could have achieved without injuries:
