Former tennis star Camila Giorgi who quit to become lingerie model before mysteriously disappearing resumes old career
FORMER tennis star Camila Giorgi is resuming her modelling career after moving to Argentina.
The 33-year-old Italian, who reached the 2018 Wimbledon quarter-final, retired from the sport last year without initially telling fans.
During her playing days, Giorgi balanced her time on the court with modelling lingerie.
But soon after hanging up her racquet, the ex-player seemingly disappeared amid claims she owed up to six months rent at a villa near Florence.
It was even alleged that she was trying to evade tax authorities, which she denied.
Giorgi is now based in Argentina and shocked fans in February by appearing as a reporter at an ATP 250 event in Buenos Aires.
She was seen courtside interviewing players and providing analysis in the studio.
But despite a brief return to tennis, Giorgi is now back to “resume her modelling career”, according to Marca.
Since her cameo on TV, the former world No26 has returned to stunning in luxury photoshoots.
She recently stripped down to a bikini for PQ Swim and stunned in a figure-hugging black dress for newspaper La Nation.
Meanwhile, Giorgi has also teased a new venture involving sport.
She uploaded a video on Instagram of herself working out alongside the caption: “A sneak peek of what I’ll be showing soon: More sports with me. My lifelong passion.”
