Argentine tennis player Guillermo Coria retires

Tennis Betting Lines

04/28/2009 - Buenos Aires, Argentina (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Argentine tennis player Guillermo Coria, a French Open finalist in 2004, announced his retirement on Tuesday citing "no desire to compete."

The 27-year-old Coria won nine titles on the ATP Tour, most recently in 2005 in Croatia. He was ranked as high as third in the world.

"I am very happy with the decision I made because I have new projects and can spend more time with my family," Coria said in a statement through the Argentine Tennis Association.

Coria tested positive for nandrolone in April 2001 and was initially suspended two years, but the penalty was later reduced to seven months after a claim that the only supplement he was taking was a multivitamin from a New Jersey- based company. Coria sued the supplement maker claiming he lost $10 million in prize money, and later settled with the New Jersey company.

At the 2004 French Open, Coria upset former world No. 1 Carlos Moya in the quarterfinals before eventually losing a five-set final to fellow Argentine Gaston Gaudio.
