Read more on Simon sadly retiring from the PSA World Tour here psaworldtour.com/news/view/8191/german-no-1-simon-r-sner-announces-retirement We'll miss you Tree Chopper! 🇩🇪🌲⚔️

[@Bamaxamb]

As a german i will not only miss Simon playing, but also the german Phrases by the Commentators! #Wunderbar

[@lightespeed]

Yes, I wish the commentators would stick to their own language, or learn German. In a way, I hope we have not heard the last of the German language pronounced in English for Raphael Kandra!

[@thecreepers8435]

Simon was such a great player. So sad that he’s retiring.

[@charlesramsey3238]

Sad to see such a true gentleman retire from professional squash but all the very best to the tree chopper in the future

[@makelt]

Happy retirement, Simon! And just keep chopping those trees! 🪓🌳😄

[@1967briano]

Very fine player. Wish him well. A gentleman.

[@paultait7628]

I think a jumping cross court volley kill should be called "the German tree chopper" or "the Rosner", no matter who does it

[@1000000trs]

Yep, agree !

[@bmw-e30]

Very likeable and fair player--had a great career.

[@kennethhenry6096]

Reading the piece there it sounds like he will play on but won’t be in the tour anymore. He’s got a family to look after and it’s probably tough making a living as a pro right now too. That’s a real shame but I’m glad he’s going to play on for his country and stuff n the leagues. The sport needs guys like Simon

[@squashtv]

Yeah still intends to play league stuff and for Germany I believe

[@jeffrawe6486]

Happy retirement Simon...... it’s been a pleasure to watch you. !

[@senso2316]

I think im gonna miss pj and joey’s broken german commentary after he hits a good shot the most

[@shyamumich]

It is sad to see him hang the boots. Obviously, his most amazing quality was his disposition. The calmness with which he carried himself, especially given the volatile characters that he was surrounded by, was truly inspiring. I am no squash expert, regardless, I didn't think he was the most gifted stroke maker. But, he was a great example to showcase what hard work, determination, and mental fortitude can do for you. I think Joey and PJ are going to miss him more than I :). Simon seemed like he was always for a tease and his smile said it all. Good luck, Simon, we will definitely miss your calm presence around.

[@wockodiddlo]

My favourite player on the tour. We'll miss you Rosner!!

[@filra2274]

In the latest years it became a true pleasure to watch this man playing. Such class and terrific fighter. I'll miss him

[@karihautala3037]

Simon, thanks for visiting Olli and all squash fans in Helsinki. Enjoyed exhibition match and evening program greatly. Happy retirement !

[@notherntranceaddict181]

Gutted to see Rosner retiring! One of my favourites and one of those players that has the respect of everyone on the tour. Legend!

[@ChristianSpliid]

[@lawrenceogden3736]

Sad loss to a great player you will be missed by me and many others good luck and stay safe

[@urvakshmogrelia]

Power to you my fav

[@vish2ume]

Sad to see Simon retiring. Big fan 🙏

[@mega-mushroom]

Will miss the slamdunkenhausens and topschpinnens. Such a clean and respectful player. Hope he enjoys more time at home with loved ones.

[@restogoose1822]

Very very sad news, I’m actually gutted

[@f.l.3339]

Sad to here, happy retirement Simon! :-)

[@avinashvaidyanathan6971]

Great player. Sad to see him.leave ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ichingiching]

Great player and great guy.

[@1000000trs]

A rare combination of Quality, Talent, Virtue, and Watchability. Thoroughly enjoyed watching Rosner play over the years. May he have an excellent and fulfilling time in the next chapter of his life.

[@luukgoedhart]

Good luck with the new chapter in your life Simon! Thanks for the great squash you played.

[@bobmckinney1005]

Great player and ambassador for the sport - think of him alongside Willstrop and Farag and the other great sportsmen of the game.

[@PrashanthRaoNDZ]

An amazing player, a class act on court and those volley kills! Will miss the big guy, so many great players leaving, the new players coming will have big shoes to fill in for sure! Good luck Simon in your future endeavors. P.s. PSA can we please get an one on one interview with Rosner!

[@graz7441]

Always really enjoyed watching Rosner

[@excellentyouboober]

All the best to Simon, from Poland!

[@michaelharris8913]

All the very best to you Simon, congrats on your esteemed career :)

[@eoincoleman4537]

Gonna miss him on tour :(

[@Chillerkerl]

Only thing I can say is „wunderbar“

[@asadchoudhry6578]

Love Rosner! sad to see him retire.. will smash some forehands in his honour

[@realdealneal14]

Great player!

[@michaelberry150]

He will be missed :(

[@kennethhenry6096]

That’s sad, he was a very good player and he was a real gent. Hope he can stay in the sport somehow

[@lightespeed]

Oh, no, another one gone! I will miss Simon, on the bright side I'm hoping Raphael Kandra can take over.

[@gedofgont1006]

Apparently, he's got a job in a bakery.😎🍻

[@thewizard1615]

:c

[@watching99134]

Retired after seventeen years on tour and still the English commentators never learned to pronounce his last name lol...

[@watching99134]

One the commentators spoke worse German than the other.
