When your protector becomes your predator, your life as a king starts to feel like hell. Money has no value for you. You are ready to pay any price to get out of this. Something similar happened with tennis star Andrea Jager. At one time, she had made it to the Wimbledon finals in her teens. But her personal life was in turmoil. There came a time when she decided to quit tennis and donated her property worth crores.
Surprised everyone in the final
In 1983, she reached the final of the Wimbledon Grand Slam. Meanwhile, she lost 6-1, 6-1 against Martina Navratilova in the final. After this defeat, she said that she wished she had lost this match.
Retired after lying
She retired at the age of just 20 due to a shoulder injury. But almost 40 years later, she revealed this secret and said that she had to say goodbye to tennis due to sexual harassment and threats.
Sexual harassment in the locker room
Andrea Jaeger said that a member of the Women's Tennis Association staff sexually abused her in the locker room. She was given alcohol when she was underage. Apart from this, a razor blade was also kept in her shoes. She retired from tennis forever after getting injured in the 1985 French Open.
Andrea became a nun
After this, Andrea worked in a hospital. She sold all her jewelry, watches and cars to help victims of physical abuse. Andrea was selected for the Order of Dominican Nuns in 2008.
