Her appearance and health have fluctuated so drastically over a short period of time I doubt her body is fit and ready for the long haul.

" ... https://www.eurosport.com/tennis/marion ... tory.shtml

She said she has three objectives in her second spell, "To win the Fed Cup, play at the Olympic Games in Tokyo, and win one of the majors of the Grand Slam."
..."

Speaking to Eurosport, she said, "I tried to keep this secret for as long as possible, but it has become inevitable that I must tell the whole world."

Hahaha, it will be fun to see her spanked by the new crop.... she will re-retire before end 2019... I am even tempted to say before end 2018. She won’t even qualify for Tokyo2020

She was nowhere in her last year apart from winning a slam in a draw that opened like the Red Sea did for Moses. She is older., the field got better.
She will achieve none of this (I guess she can win a Fed Cup with Garcia and Mladenovic winning the matches)

I suspect that extreme weight loss might've weakened her bones, one of her assets.
