Radwańska's fourth-round match against Pironkova was contested over three days due to harsh rainy conditions. Radwańska led the encounter prior to the resumption of the match in the rain. However while playing in the rain she dropped ten consecutive games, got treatment from a trainer on her hand and subsequently ended up losing the match in three sets. While avoiding major injury during the match, Radwańska needed treatment to her hand the following day.^[71]

Radwańska was awarded a wildcard entry into the Birmingham Classic, which opened the grass-court season. She lost to CoCo Vandeweghe in the opening match. Prior to Wimbledon, Radwańska competed in another grass tournament at Eastbourne International. She beat Eugenie Bouchard to reach her first quarterfinal on grass courts this season.

Radwańska found herself on the losing end of a tight three-set match against Dominika Cibulkova, which lasted almost three hours.

At the start of the summer hard-court season Radwańska pulled out of the Bank of the West Classic, due to an injured right hand. She caught an injury to her right hand during the marathon third set in the fourth round of the Wimbledon Championships against Cibulkova. "Unfortunately the right hand injury I suffered at Wimbledon is not 100 percent (fine) and my medical team has advised me to rest," said Radwańska. She, however, was able to get back in shape before Rogers Cup in Montreal.^[72] At Rogers Cup, she defeated Monica Niculescu in straight sets before losing to Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in the third round.

In April, Radwańska began her clay season at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix as the 7th seed. She lost in straight sets to Ekaterina Makarova in the first round.^[81] She later withdrew from her forthcoming tournaments in Madrid and Rome, citing a foot injury.

In the second round she defeated Belgium’s Alison Van Uytvanck^[82] to face Alizé Cornet in the third round. Radwańska had won seven of their eight previous matches, including the only one on clay - at the French Open nine years ago - but this time lost to Cornet in two sets.^[83] Radwanska withdrew from the Ricoh Open and Aegon Classic Birmingham due to a viral illness.

She defeated Julia Görges in the second round, claiming her 500th main draw victory on the WTA. Radwańska avenged her straight-set loss to Görges earlier this year, at the Western & Southern Open in Cincinnati, and increased her head-to-head record against the German to four wins and two losses. A quarterfinalist in Wuhan last year, Radwańska lost to the eventual finalist, Ashleigh Barty in the third round, after the Australian dispatched No. 5 seed Johanna Konta.^[84] Radwańska began her title defense at the China Open with two straight-sets victories over Carina Witthöft and Zhang Shuai before falling to Daria Kasatkina in a third-round three set meeting.

2018: Retirement

Agnieszka Radwańska playing at Wimbledon 2018 Championship

Radwańska began the year at the WTA Auckland Open where as the fourth seed, she defeated Beatriz Haddad Maia and Taylor Townsend but lost to qualifier Sachia Vickery in the quarterfinal. She then competed at the Apia International Sydney, overpowering the defending champion Johanna Konta and Catherine Bellis to advance to the quarterfinal, where she lost to Camila Giorgi. This loss caused Radwańska to fall out of the top 30 for the first time since 2007 since she was unable to defend her finalist points at the tournament.

Radwańska was seeded 26th at the Australian Open. She reached the third round, after defeating Kristýna Plíšková and Lesia Tsurenko, but lost to Hsieh Su-wei, who beat Garbine Muguruza in the second round.

Radwańska made it three three-set victories in a row over Mona Barthel to make a winning start to her Qatar Total Open campaign. She ultimately needed 10 match points, but avoided the tiebreak and finally closed out the match after two hours and 26 minutes. "I’d rather not talk about those ten match points!" Radwańska joked. "The important thing is I won the tenth one".^[86] In the second round, Radwańska lost to the eventual champion Petra Kvitova in three sets.^[87]

At Dubai, Radwańska lost to eventual finalist Daria Kasatkina in the opening round.^[88] Her next tournament was the BNP Paribas Open where she received a bye into the second round. In the second round she lost to the eventual champion Naomi Osaka, who defeated unseeded Maria Sharapova in her opening match.

At Miami Open Radwańska made a promising start, defeating world No. 1 Simona Halep in three sets. This victory marked Radwanska’s second career win over a world No. 1, and the first since 2012. She extends her great record in Miami, too; she’s now reached the round of 16 or better in ten of her 12 appearances.^[89] Radwańska ended her run in Miami with a loss to Victoria Azarenka in the fourth round. After Miami, she was promoted from 32 position to 30 in the WTA ranking.

Radwanska opened her clay-court season in Istanbul where she retired in the first round match to Donna Vekic. It was later revealed that Radwanska hurt her back the day before during a training session. Subsequently, she withdrew from the Mutua Madrid Open and French Open due to a back injury.^[90]

Radwańska made a winning return from injury against Timea Babos in the first round of the Nature Valley International. Despite missing a Grand Slam for the first time in over a decade, dating back to the 2006 French Open, the former world No. 2 looked as though she'd never left over the course of 66 minutes on the Eastbourne lawns. Radwańska, unseeded in Eastbourne, defeated No. 15 seed Daria Gavrilova to face Petra Kvitova in the third round. Since Petra Kvitova withdrew with a hamstring injury Radwańska automatically advanced to the quarterfinal where she defeated Jelena Ostapenko to reach the semifinal. In the semifinal she lost to Aryna Sabalenka in three sets.

At Wimbledon Radwańska defeated Elena-Gabriela Ruse in a close three-set match, saving six match points and reeling off the last three games in a row to book her place in the second round.^[91] In the 2nd round she played Lucie Safarova, to whom she lost in straight sets.

For the first time in her career Radwańska lost to Karolina Pliskova in the first round of the 2018 Western & Southern Open, bringing their head to head to 7-1 against the Czech. Next she played at the Connecticut Open where she lost to Petra Kvitova in the opening round.

Due to her ongoing struggles with injuries Radwańska withdrew from the China Open tournament in Beijing thus ending the season early with a 14-14 singles record. By the end of the season Radwańska fell to the 78th position in the ranking - the lowest since 2006, when she made her debut in the WTA series.

On November 14, 2018, Radwańska announced her retirement from professional tennis. “Taking into consideration my health and the heavy burdens of professional tennis, I have to concede that I’m not able to push my body to the limits required,” she wrote on her Facebook account.^[94]

Fed Cup participation

Radwańska participated in the Fed Cup from 2006 to the present. She played a total of 48 Fed Cup matches with 41 wins and 7 losses.^[95] For her achievements she was presented with two Fed Cup Heart Awards. "I think it’s great to play Fed Cup," said Radwańska, "I’ve been playing for the last couple of years and I really think it helped my team to go up and, you know, I’m very happy about it and I’m always ready to play".^[96]

As member of the Poland Fed Cup team Radwańska participated in 2014 Fed Cup World Group Play-offs. In Barcelona she led Poland to a 3–2 win over Spain, which allowed Poland to advance to 2015 Fed Cup World Group for the first time in over twenty years.^[97]

Rivalries

Radwańska vs. Wozniacki

With over a decade of meetings Radwańska and Wozniacki has a rivalry which ended 11–6 in Wozniacki's favour. Radwańska first scored a win against Caroline Wozniacki in July 2007 at Nordic Light Open in Stockholm. She also defeated Caroline at Sydney International, Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo, and also tournaments in Doha, Wuhan and Beijing.^[98] In August 2017 they faced each other at Rogers Cup where Caroline beat Radwańska to advance to the quarterfinals in Toronto.^[99]

Radwańska vs. Zvonareva

Radwańska and Zvonareva after the 2011 Pan Pacific Open final

Radwańska had a rivalry with Russian player Vera Zvonareva,^[100][101] which began in 2007. It ended 4–2 in Radwańska's favour.^[102]

Throughout their meetings, Radwańska proved able to match Zvonareva's pace and movements around the court.^[103] Zvonareva is considered the more powerful of the two, while Radwańska was noted as more focused at times,^[31][103] utilizing what Sports Illustrated's Courtney Nguyen dubbed "selective aggression" during the pair's 2011 matches.^[104]

Their first match occurred during the 2007 Kremlin Cup, with Zvonareva winning in straight sets. The two did not play again until the 2011 season, when Radwańska won four of their five matches—including the finals of the Mercury Insurance Open and the Pan Pacific Open. Their final meeting of 2011 was an acclaimed match at the WTA Championships.^[105][106] Trailing 3–5 in the third set, Radwańska saved three match points and went on to win in three sets. The victory marked her fourth straight win against Zvonareva, whom she described as "very consistent and always tough to beat."^[107]

Radwańska vs. Li

Radwańska and Li Na^[108] first played in 2009. Li lead the series 6–5. Radwańska won the majority of their matches on grass and their only meeting on clay. Li lead the rivalry on hard courts.^[109] After their first four matches in 2009 and 2010 the head-to-head was even at 2–2. This included a victory each at the Wimbledon Championships; Radwańska winning in 2009 and Li in 2010. In 2012 Radwańska and Li met four times, with Li taking three victories. Li lost their meeting in the Stuttgart quarter-final in three sets, but dominated in Montréal, Cincinnati and Beijing. Li prevented Radwańska from taking the world No. 1 ranking off the incumbent Victoria Azarenka. In 2013 both won the first tournament they entered. They were both undefeated when they met each other in the semifinals of their second tournament of the year at Sydney. Radwańska beat Li and eventually won the tournament. At the 2013 Australian Open, Li became the first player to defeat Radwańska that season, with a victory in the quarterfinals. That same year they met again at Wimbledon in the quarterfinals, with Radwańska winning in three sets.^[110]

Radwańska vs. Ivanovic

Radwańska and Ana Ivanovic had their first professional meeting in 2006.^[111] With Ana Ivanović having retired, Radwańska ended the series 7–3 ahead. The majority of their matches were played on hard courts. Radwańska lead their match-ups on clay.^[112]

Radwańska vs. Kerber

Radwańska versus Angelique Kerber has been described as one of the closest rivalries in women's tennis.^[113] The rivalry stretches back to their first meeting in 2008 Qatar Telecom German Open. Radwańska and Kerber were tied after winning 6 matches each.^[114] The players have played one match each on grass and clay, with Radwańska winning both. Kerber leads their head-to-head on hard courts 5–4. Their first meeting in 2015 at Bank of the West Classic took place at night, with Kerber winning in three sets.^[115]

Radwańska vs. Kuznetsova

Radwańska and Svetlana Kuznetsova played each other eighteen times since 2007, with Radwańska trailing the head-to-head 4–14.^[116] Their first meeting was at Wimbledon in 2007 with Radwańska losing in straight sets. She lost their first three meetings, but in the four meetings that eventuated in 2008, she would win three of them, including in the third round of the Australian Open^[117] and in the fourth round of Wimbledon.^[118] Additionally, she also defeated her at the year-end championships later in the year after replacing an injured Ana Ivanovic during the round robin stage. Radwańska would later struggle in the rivalry, at one point losing six meetings in a row, including an upset loss at the 2012 French Open,^[119] before ending this losing streak at the 2014 Mutua Madrid Open, saving three match points in the process.^[120] Radwańska also lost to Kuznetsova in the two finals in which they met, first at Beijing in 2009^[121] and then at San Diego in 2010.^[122] In 2015, Radwańska lost to Kuznetsova again in the opening match of Fed Cup tie between Russia and Poland.^[123] Their most recent meeting at the 2016 Wuhan Open saw Radwańska lose a three-set, quarter-final thriller after holding a match point in the second set.^[124] They met for the 17th time at the WTA Finals in Singapore, with Radwańska again wasting a match point in a three-set loss.^[125] Their most recent meeting, at the 2017 Wimbledon Championships, saw Radwańska lose in straight sets, a decade on from their first meeting.^[126]

Playing style and equipment

Radwańska hitting a crouching forehand

In 2012, Tom Perrotta of The Wall Street Journal called Radwańska "the most tactically sound, subtle tennis player in the world."^[128] Over the years she was given the nicknames "The Magician", "Ninja" and "The Professor", due to the fact that she can pull off the most difficult shots in the game with ease.^[6][69] Radwańska's game is founded on variety, mobility, and a tendency to anticipate her opponent's actions.^[129][130] She often uses this style to construct rallies—either opening the court up for a winner, or prompting a surprised opponent to hit a misplaced return.^[5][128] Her primary weapons include a mixture of slices and lobs, along with her ability to hit the ball at a variety of angles.^[103][131] She also makes use of a disguised drop shot, often swung with the same motion as a normal stroke during a rally.^[132] She is also noted for her crouching shots, during which she quickly drops in place to return or redirect a low ball, along with her use of an overhead backhand while on defense.^[103][132] In fact, she is known for having invented her distinctive squat position shot, where she sits so low on her haunches that she can play half-volleys with a horizontal racket. "I’m not sure if I invented it," says Radwanska, "but I was definitely one of the first ones. When I watch TV, I can hear commentators say that was my shot, even if someone else is playing, so it’s nice to hear I can put something new into tennis".^[133]

Radwańska hitting a tweener shot

One of Radwańska's main weaknesses is her lack of power in her serve. Her serve, especially her second serve, is generally slow and vulnerable to attack. Her shots sometimes lack penetration on court, posing little threat to power hitters.^[134][135] "I don't think I can ever serve 200 kilometers per hour, it's just not my body," Radwańska said. "I have to do something else. I was just born to play like this. I have so many ideas. In your mind it's like, 'OK, I go down the line, then crosscourt, maybe drop shot.' But you have just one second, or even not one second, it just has to be automatic." Radwańska merely exhales when she strikes the ball, rather than loudly grunting like many of her peers. She bounces the ball no more than four times before serving. She says she can play with any racket and likes to use one for an entire match, unlike most players, who routinely grab frames with fresh strings.^[136]

Tennis commentators, including former pro Wojciech Fibak, have compared her playing style to that of Martina Hingis, with Fibak describing her as "a natural mover who understands the geometry of the court".^[137] Radwańska cited Hingis as an inspiration.^[12] She and Hingis had their lone tour meeting in 2007, with Radwańska winning in three sets.^[12]

Radwańska played with the Babolat Pure Drive Lite racquets until the end of the 2016 season. At the start of the 2017 season, beginning with the Shenzhen Open tournament, Radwańska started playing with a new tennis racket, made by the Japanese manufacturer, Srixon. Other tennis players who also use Srixon rackets include Kevin Anderson, Misaki Doi, Kurumi Nara, Zarina Diyas and Magda Linette.^[138] For her on court tennis apparel, Radwańska is currently sponsored by Lotto Sport Italia.^[11]

Coaches

Radwańska began her tennis career with her father, Robert Radwański, as her coach. She stated: "My dad was traveling with me all my life and we practiced together for 17 years, almost actually 18. So it's pretty long time."^[139]

In 2011, Radwańska began working with Fed Cup coach Tomasz Wiktorowski, who replaced her father. Borna Bikić, a veteran coach on the WTA Tour, briefly joined them in 2012.^[140]

Radwańska hired Martina Navratilova as part of her team at the conclusion of the 2014 season. In April 2015 they parted ways after Navratilova stated that she was too busy to continue in her part-time role as Radwańska's consulting coach.^[141]

Sponsors

After years of expressing her love for the American restaurant chain Cheesecake Factory, Radwańska became the restaurant’s first sports endorsement in 2014. Radwańska began to wear the Cheesecake Factory’s logo on her visor at the start of the 2014 BNP Paribas Open. Additionally, she will continue to wear the company logo during all of her matches played in the U.S.^[142]

On 1 January 2014 Radwańska became a global ambassador for the luxury watch manufacturer Rado. She signed a three-year deal with the watch company, becoming the third tennis player to join Rado after Julia Görges and Andy Murray. The deal will see her wear the Rado HyperChrome Automatic Chronograph in white high-tech ceramic.^[143]

Radwańska also has a partnership agreement with Lexus. As a result of this sponsorship Lexus logo appears on Agnieszka’s court dress in all the Grand Slam tournaments, the Masters tournament and in selected tournaments rank Premier and Premier Mandatory. Additionally, Radwańska is currently driving the latest Lexus model – LS limousine.^[144]

Radwańska also has sponsorship agreements with Babolat, Lotto Sport Italia, Vanquis Bank, Amica, Dayli and Play.^[2]

On 6 January 2015 Radwańska signed a personal endorsement deal with financial management and HR software company Workday, Inc. The Pleasanton, California-based company announced the deal on its Twitter feed and Radwańska sported the Workday logo on her dress as she beat Great Britain's Heather Watson in a Hopman Cup match in Australia.^[145]

On 12 April 2017 Radwańska became an official ambassador for Lotos, Poland’s biggest oil and gas producer. In the past six months, Radwańska added three more deals: collaboration with cosmetics brand Inglot, Srixon tennis rackets and Profbud, a high-end real estate developer in Poland. As part of her partnership with Profbud, Radwańska has become the face of the brand's luxury apartments in Warsaw.^[146][147]

Charitable work

Since 2009, Radwańska and her sister Urszula have devoted time during the off-season to Szlachetna Paczka ("Noble Box"). The charity has its volunteers go door-to-door throughout the year compiling a database of families in need, asking them what would help ease the pressures of the holidays. Then, for a three-week period from mid-November to early December, donors are given a list to take with them to the supermarket, where they fill a shopping cart with the food, clothing and more to donate to them.^[148]

Additionally, she and Urszula offer their support to Habitat for Humanity and its project in Warsaw. As Habitat for Humanity ambassador Radwańska stated, "It's an honor to be a part of such a fantastic cause and be involved with Habitat for Humanity, helping underprivileged families across the world. I have great respect for all the volunteers and those working hard everyday against poverty housing."^[149]
