2019 Wimbledon Semifinalist Bautista Agut Scores On His Football Debut
Roberto Bautista Agut Instagram: Roberto Bautista Agut, former tennis player and 2019 Wimbledon semifinalist, has scored twice on his football debut as he looks to make his mark in a new sport. The 38-year-old netted twice for Spanish seventh-tier side CD Els Ibarsos in his team's 4-2 win.
The Spanish star announced his retirement from tennis a little over a month ago. He made a switch to football and signed a deal with CD Els Ibarsos. "It's a new stage of life that's making me very happy", Bautista Agut said on Instagram. "May the good start continue!"
Bautista Agut has played youth football for Villarreal in the past before he chose tennis as a career. The Spaniard has won 12 singles titles, was a semifinalist at the SW19, a quarterfinalist at the Australian Open 2019 and achieved his top ATP ranking of No.9 in 2019. He also won the Davis Cup with Spain in 2019.
