"Thank you and goodbye"

But you won't see the last of Azlan Iskandar (pic).


The squash player announced his retirement from the professional circuit - something he has been toying about for sometime due to other personal commitments.


Thus it comes to no surprise he was rather "fine" when asked how he felt right after the press conference held at the National Squash Center in Bukit Jalil.

He was, however, overwhelmed with the response after making the announcement.

"Of course I was taken aback by the twitter response," exclaimed Azlan.

"But made the decision a while back. Thank you all for the overwhelming support."

Azlan will surely be part of the sport through the Azlan Iskandar Squash Academy.

And he will surely steal the headlines in the near future - not through his exploits on the squash courts for sure.
