Former world number four Greg Rusedski announced his retirement on Saturday after helping Britain to establish a winning 3-0 lead over the Netherlands in a Davis Cup tie in Birmingham.
Canada-born Rusedski, who took British citizenship in 1995, had teamed up with Jamie Murray to win the doubles rubber in the Europe/Africa zone group tie and put Britain into the draw for the world group playoffs.
"It was a proud moment considering this is going to be my last match," Rusedski told the BBC. "I'm officially retiring on a win today. Now I can enjoy life like everybody else. Now it's time to move on."
Rusedski, who boasted one of the most devastating serves in the modern era, reached his career-high ranking in 1997 when he lost in the US Open final to Australia's Patrick Rafter.
The 33-year-old former British number one and BBC Sports Personality of the Year managed 15 career titles, including the Paris Masters in 1998.
Despite his serving power, his record at Wimbledon was frustrating, with just one quarter-final appearance in 1997.
The latter years of his career were blighted with a succession of injuries and his ranking had slipped to 283. Rusedski's last match on the main tour was a first-round defeat by compatriot Tim Henman in the US Open last August.
