Australian doubles great Todd Woodbridge has announced he will retire from tennis after Wimbledon.

Woodbridge, 34, has won a record 83 tour men's doubles titles including nine at Wimbledon.

He will not be available for Australia's Davis Cup quarter-final against Argentina in Sydney next month.

Woodbridge said he came to Wimbledon this year chasing a 10th title but after he and new partner Mahesh Bhuphati were beaten in the second round he decided to call it a day.

But he is still alive in the mixed doubles at Wimbledon where he and fellow Australian Samantha Stosur won their third-round match.

"I think I've had a pretty good run," he said.

"I really wanted to come here and go for 10 titles, but things didn't work out according to plan.

"I had always planned to play my whole year out this year but my partnership with Mahesh didn't go as well as we would have hoped.

"I didn't come to this tournament planning to retire but I felt I had so many good, strong memories here it was the right place to do it and the right time in my career to do it."

Following Woodforde's retirement, he teamed with Swede Jonas Bjorkman to win another three Wimbledon titles in a row from 2002 to last year.

He also won three Australian Open titles, three US Open titles and the 2000 French Open, while he has a total of six mixed doubles championships from each of the grand slam tournaments.
