Peter Sterling shoots down rumours about why he was retiring from Channel Nine commentary team

Legendary commentator Peter Sterling has shot down online rumours about why he is retiring from the Wide World of Sports team.

Sterling recently confirmed he was walking away from a job he has held at Nine for almost three decades.

“I’m retiring. I’m not looking for more work,” Sterling told The Sydney Morning Herald.

:That conjecture disappointed me. I have another year on my contract at Nine and they asked would I reconsider. I’m also not leaving to open up things for younger people; they can make their own way.

“It’s purely a personal decision that it is the right time to walk away from something that has given me absolutely everything. It’s now the right time to give everything elsewhere.”
