Overview

  • Edmund formally announced his retirement on August 18, 2025, after capping his career with a runner-up finish in the Nottingham final.
  • He captured two ATP Tour singles titles in Antwerp (2018) and New York (2020), amassed 119 tour-level wins and served as Britain’s No. 1.
  • His run to the 2018 Australian Open semi-finals made him the first Briton after Andy Murray since 1978 to reach that stage in Melbourne.
  • A sequence of surgeries in November 2020, March 2021 and May 2022 kept him off the top tours, leading to prolonged spells on the Challenger and ITF circuits.
  • LTA chief executive Scott Lloyd lauded Edmund’s career achievements and conveyed best wishes as he plans to spend time with family and explore new ventures.
