The 32-year-old from Auckland, NZ, has been contemplating her future since winning the Women's World Open title in Hong Kong in December. That win marked her 50th appearance in a WISPA final and her second world title, achieved while holding the World No. 1 position. "Being No. 1 in the world is as good as it gets, and I have no regrets about calling it a day," said Owens.
