The Georgian-born American, 30, is best known for a run to the round of 16 at the 2012 US Open, where she lost to then-World No.1 and eventual runner-up Victoria Azarenka.
"Unfortunately, due to recurring injuries, my body is not allowing me to play competitive tennis any longer," she wrote in a Twitter post on Thursday.
"It turned out that professional tennis is not only a fight on the court but also [to] an equal degree, maybe even more, a fight with injuries.
"No matter how painful the decision was for me, I had to decide to leave professional tennis and focus on my career off the court."
