Yes, but you can still make the official announcement and retire 100% and still let the points run down
It's just an admin thing - and some people are far better or care far more about admin
Just my guess, too, but I don't think hev is ready to retire yet....

 Not quite right. You can say you are retiring and the points run down, but if you officially retire via the WTA/ITF, like Jo did, then you are straight out of the rankings.

Anyway, I think Hev will continue for quite a while yet - she loves playing too much.


 


A player that officially retires is removed from the rankings at the end of the season or they can request to be removed from the rankings at an earlier date of their choosing.

If a player doesn't officially retire (by submitting the paperwork) and instead retires by letting their points run down, they'll still need to abide by the anti-doping requirements.

When Heather was asked last month what thoughts she had on what she'd do after her playing career, she didn't sound like someone who had any plans on retiring any time soon.

 I can't see Heather retiring in the next 12 months.  Much more problematic in terms of the predictions is knowing whether the likes of Emma, the Katies, Fran and Katy will have be fit enough to play a full season.  I believe the potential ranking they could all achieve is much higher than any of them managed this year due to on going injury or fitness issues.  With two extra counters available in 2024 they will have to play more regularly through the season to be competitive.

 Sorry, the addict - I always enjoy this with a good dose of festive cheer.

I usually do it New Year's Eve but I've noted there's an earlier deadline this year - EVERYONE ELSE - EARLIER DEADLINE - TAKE NOTE - so will aim for Christmas Eve, or Boxing Day. Hope that's OK....

 Yes, I'm away for New Year so need to get the entries into the spreadsheet before I go. The WTA events start before I get home (Canberra, Brisbane, Auckland, Adelaide and Hobart)

Not so pessimistic telstar - your total is 1934 which is a fraction up on the current total of 2004. And a fairly realistic target for young Hannah as well !
