News
Maruschka Waldus has announced her retirement from professional soccer. Waldus, now 32, just finished up her season with Feyenoord Rotterdam, and has had stops along the way in Australia, Norway, Finland, Sweden, and Germany, and briefly with Sky Blue FC (now NJ/NY Gotham) in the NWSL. Waldus was named Player of the Year for Adelaide United in 2021, and was the recipient of the team’s Alagich Vidmar Award. In 2019, she was named to the Norwegian Toppserien All-11 Team. She also became the first Dutch player to appear in an NWSL match in her appearance for Sky Blue FC in 2015. She finishes her professional career with 26 goals.
Erin Routliffe will now be partnering with Victoria Azarenka at the upcoming French Open. The change in partners was necessitated by Gabriela Dabrowski suffering an injury this week, which forced the Routliffe / Dabrowski tandem to withdraw prior to a semifinals match in Strasbourg. Routliffe did not say how long Dabrowski will be out, but said that she’ll be “out for a little bit.”
