Bartoli, the 2013 Wimbledon winner, will join Mats Wilander, Amélie Mauresmo, Barbara Schett, Henri Leconte and Serena Williams' coach Patrick Mouratoglou as part of the Eurosport team for the final Grand Slam of the year, which runs from 26 August to 8 September.

Bartoli will give her expert analysis as part of Eurosport and Eurosport 2's unrivalled coverage which includes 250 hours of live TV broadcast and access to six courts on Eurosport Player, Eurosport's online TV service.

She will work with both the French and English broadcasting teams.

Bartoli had shocked the tennis world last week by announcing her retirement from the sport at the age of 28, and tweeted news of her new role to her 35,000 plus followers.

I would love to hear from Maid Marion during the competition. I am sure that she will offer some insights that only a former player could know. She appears to be articulate and humorous.

I think it's too soon for her. Gheez, give it some distance and take time away from the game to breathe!!

I prefer Bartoli to Golovin....I am sure she will be balanced and not jealousy or bitchy like Tatiana.We will get intelligent discourse from the genius...
