Ashleigh Jacinta BartyAO (born 24 April 1996) is an Australian former professionaltennis player andcricketer. She was ranked as theworld No. 1 in women's singles by theWomen's Tennis Association (WTA) for 121 weeks, and was ranked world No. 5 in doubles. Barty won 12WTA Tour-level singles titles, and threemajors at the2019 French Open,2021 Wimbledon Championships, and2022 Australian Open, as well as the2019 WTA Finals. She also won 12 doubles titles, including a major at the2018 US Open withCoCo Vandeweghe.

A successful junior, Barty was the junior world No. 2 and won the2011 Wimbledon girls' singles title. As a teenager, Barty had early success in doubles on the WTA Tour in 2013, finishing runner-up at three major doubles events withCasey Dellacqua. Late in the 2014 season, Barty decided to take an indefinite break from tennis, playing cricket instead. She signed with theBrisbane Heat for the inauguralWomen's Big Bash League season despite having no formal training in the sport.

Barty returned to tennis in 2016. She had a breakthrough year in singles in 2017, winning her first WTA Tour title at theMalaysian Open and rising to No. 17 in the world. She also had another prolific year in doubles with Dellacqua, culminating in her first appearance at theWTA Finals in doubles. Barty then won her first Premier Mandatory and major tournament titles in doubles in 2018 before accomplishing the same feat in singles in 2019, highlighted by her victory at the 2019 French Open. Barty won five more titles in 2021, including a second major singles title at the Wimbledon Championships and twoWTA 1000 titles. With her title at the 2022 Australian Open on home soil, she won a major in singles on all three surfaces. Barty also ledAustralia to a runner-up finish at the2019 Fed Cup and won a bronze medal in mixed doubles at theTokyo Olympics in 2021. Barty announced her retirement from tennis in March 2022, just two months after her Australian Open title and while ranked as the world No. 1 in singles.

Barty was an all-court player with a wide variety of shots. Despite her short stature for a professional tennis player, she was an excellent server, regularly ranking among the WTA Tour's leaders in aces and percentage of service points won. She serves as the National Indigenous Tennis Ambassador forTennis Australia. Her 114 consecutive weeks at No. 1 (not including when rankings were frozen between March and August 2020 due to theCOVID-19 pandemic) is the fourth-longest streak in WTA history.[5]

Early life and background

[edit]

Ashleigh Jacinta Barty,[6][7] known as "Ash", was born on 24 April 1996 inIpswich, Queensland to Josie and Robert Barty. Her father grew up in the ruralNorth Queensland town ofBowen where he became a Queensland and Australian representative ingolf[8] and later worked for theState Library of Queensland.[9] Her mother is the daughter of English immigrants,[10] was a state representative for Queensland in golf[11] in her younger years, and began working as aradiographer after retiring from golf. Through her great-grandmother, Barty is of the Indigenous AustralianNgaragu people, the Aboriginal people of southern New South Wales and northeastern Victoria.[12][13] She grew up inSpringfield, a suburb ofIpswich, Queensland, and attendedWoodcrest State College throughout her upbringing.[14][15] She has two older sisters named Sara and Ali.[13] Besides tennis, Barty also playednetball as a child, but decided to focus on tennis because she "thought netball was a girls' game"[13] and because her sisters were better than her at that sport.[16]

Barty started working with her longtime junior coach Jim Joyce at the West Brisbane Tennis Centre at the age of four.[17] Joyce remarked that he did not typically train children as young as Barty, but made an exception because of her excellenthand-eye coordination and high level of focus. He recalled a moment from their first lesson, saying, "The first ball I threw to her, bang! She hit it right back."[13] As a child, Barty also practised at home, remembering, "I used to hit the ball against [the wall exterior to our living room] every day after school, for hours on end." By the time she was nine, she was practising against boys who were six years older. At the age of 12, she was playing against male adults.[13] She first met her mentor,Alicia Molik, at the under-12 national championships in Melbourne.[18]

Former tennis professionalScott Draper later joined Barty's coaching team and worked with her at the National Academy.[19] When she was 15 years old, former top 20 playerJason Stoltenberg took over as her primary coach. Barty's junior schedule took her to Europe and away from her family in Australia for much of the year. The season she turned 17, she was only home for 27 days during the entire calendar year.[13][20]

Career

[edit]

Juniors

[edit]
Barty at the 2011 Wimbledon Championships

Barty reached a career-high junior ranking of world No. 2, having excelled at both singles and doubles. She started playing low-level events on theITF Junior Circuit in 2009 at the age of 13 and won her first title at the Grade-4 Australian International before turning 14. Barty continued to play only in tournaments below the higher tiers until the end of 2010, compiling a record of 24–2 in her five events that season while also capturing a Grade 2 title in Thailand.[19][21][22] She played her first junior Grand Slam event in 2011 at theAustralian Open, where she lost her opening match to third seedLauren Davis.[10] However, she bounced back from this defeat in the coming months by winning both the singles and doubles events at two high-level Grade 1 events, the Sarawak Chief Minister's Cup in Malaysia in March and the Belgian International Junior Championships in May.[23][24][25]

After a second-round loss at the2011 French Open, Barty won her only junior Grand Slam title atWimbledon at the age of 15. She became just the second Australian to win the girls' singles event afterDebbie Freeman in 1980, and the first Australian girl to win any junior Grand Slam singles title sinceJelena Dokic at the1998 US Open. CompatriotLuke Saville also won the boys' title to help Australia sweep both singles events. The only set she dropped in the tournament was toMadison Keys in the third round, and her victory in the final was against third seedIrina Khromacheva.[21][26][27] In the last major of the year Barty produced another strong singles result, losing to top seedCaroline Garcia in the semifinals of theUS Open.[28] Barty also won two more Grade-1 titles in doubles that season, one at Roehampton the week before Wimbledon and the other at the Canadian Open the week before the US Open.[21] She concluded the season by winning theJunior Fed Cup for Australia with teammateBelinda Woolcock.[29][30] Barty only played in one junior tournament the following year, where she finished runner-up in both singles and doubles at the Torneo International in Italy.[21]

2010–2012: Australian Open debut, top 200

[edit]

Barty started her professional career in April 2010 just after turning 14 at anITF Women's Circuit $25K event in her hometown ofIpswich. She lost her first match toKarolina Wlodarczak. Barty played in one more main draw that year inMount Gambier, where she reached the semifinals in just her second professional tournament. Her first pro match win came againstAyu Fani Damayanti. In 2011, she entered three more $25K events in Australia, with her best results being two quarterfinals.[31] Following her girls' singles title at Wimbledon,Tennis Australia awarded Barty awildcard into qualifying at theUS Open.[32] In her first WTA Tour-level appearance, she was unable to qualify for the main draw, losing her opening round match toJulia Glushko.[33] Barty closed out the year by competing in aplayoff for one of the Australian wildcard berths into the main draw of the2012 Australian Open. Despite being the youngest player in the competition, she won all five of her matches without dropping a set to earn the wildcard. She swept her round-robin group featuring world No. 133Casey Dellacqua before defeating No. 239Arina Rodionova and No. 167Olivia Rogowska in the knockout stage.[34][35]

Barty made her singles and doubles main-draw debuts on the WTA Tour in early 2012. Her doubles debut came at theBrisbane International, the first event of the year. After losing in singles qualifying, she partnered with Dellacqua to make the semifinals in doubles while still just 15 years old. Their tournament was highlighted by an upset of the top seeded team ofNatalie Grandin andVladimíra Uhlířová, both of whom were in the top 25 of the WTA doubles rankings.[36][37][38] The following week, Barty made her singles debut as a wildcard at theHobart International, losing her opening round match toBethanie Mattek-Sands.[39][40] She then made her Grand Slam main-draw debut the very next week at the Australian Open, where she lost her first round match toAnna Tatishvili.[41][42] Later in the year, Barty also received wildcards into the main draws of theFrench Open andWimbledon, but lost her opening-round matches toPetra Kvitová andRoberta Vinci, respectively, both of whom were seeded.[38][43]

Besides her first WTA Tour appearances, Barty also had a break-out year on the ITF Circuit. She compiled a singles record of 34–4 in nine tournaments to accompany a doubles record of 25–5 while frequently partnering with compatriotSally Peers.[22] She won four ITF titles in both singles and doubles.[31] In particular, her first two singles titles came in back-to-back weeks in February in Sydney and Mildura.[44] She also won both the singles and doubles events at theNottingham Challenge, a mid-level $50K grass-court event in the lead-up to Wimbledon.[45] Barty ended the season with a doubles title at the$75K event on carpet in Japan, where she partnered with Dellacqua for the second time for her biggest title of the year.[36] Her quarterfinal appearance in singles at the same tournament helped her rise to No. 177 in the WTA singles rankings, having first cracked the top 200 of the WTA singles rankings a few weeks earlier at the age of 16. She also finished the year ranked No. 129 in doubles.[46]

2013–2014: Breakthrough in doubles

[edit]

In 2013, Barty began playing primarily at the WTA Tour level. She only played in eight singles main draws in total after losing in qualifying at five tournaments.[38] Although she stayed outside the top 100 in singles throughout the year, she established herself as one of the world's elite double players despite not turning 17 until the middle of the season.[46]

Singles: First WTA Tour, major match wins

[edit]

Barty was awarded another wildcard into the2013 Australian Open singles main draw, but lost her opening match.[47] Towards the end of February, she won her first two WTA Tour-level matches at theMalaysian Open againstChanel Simmonds andZarina Diyas before her run ended in the quarterfinals.[48][49] Barty's only other two tour-level singles wins of 2013 came at Grand Slam tournaments. She was awarded main draw wildcards into theFrench Open andUS Open, where she won her first round matches at both events.[50][51][22]

Barty began the 2014 season by qualifying for theBrisbane International. She won her opening-round match against No. 33,Daniela Hantuchová, before withdrawing from the tournament due to a left adductor injury.[52] This came to be her only singles main draw win of the year at any level. She played in three Grand Slam main draws, including at theUS Open where she had to qualify, but lost all of her first-round matches.[38]

Doubles: Three major finals, first career title

[edit]
Barty at the 2013 US Open

In doubles, Barty partnered with Dellacqua in eight WTA Tour-level events during the 2013 season, including all four Grand Slam tournaments. The pair finished runner-up in three out of four such events, only failing to reach the final at theFrench Open, where they lost in the first round.[38] At the age of 16, Barty'sAustralian Open finals appearance made her the youngest Grand Slam finalist sinceTatiana Golovin won the mixed doubles title at the2004 French Open at the same age. As a team, Barty and Dellacqua became the first Australian duo to reach an Australian Open women's doubles final sinceEvonne Goolagong andHelen Gourlay in1977.[53][54] This success also helped Barty advance nearly 100 spots in the world rankings to No. 46.[46] AtWimbledon and theUS Open, Barty and Dellacqua defeated three of the top-ten seeds at both events, including the No. 2 seeds in each case.[38] The closest they came to winning a major title was at the Australian Open and the US Open, where they were up a break with a set in hand in both finals.[55][56][57]

Barty and Dellacqua did win one title together at theBirmingham Classic, where they defeatedCara Black andMarina Erakovic in the final.[58] Without Dellacqua as her partner, Barty had also made two more tour-level semifinals earlier in the year, including at thePremier-levelCharleston Open withAnastasia Rodionova. She finished the season as the world No. 12 in the doubles rankings.[46]

Despite her struggles in singles in 2014, Barty had another good year in doubles with Dellacqua as her regular partner.[38] The pair won their second title together at theInternationaux de Strasbourg during the clay season.[59] While they did not repeat their success at the Grand Slam tournaments from the previous year, they still managed to reach the quarterfinals at both theFrench Open andWimbledon.[60][61] However, they were not able to defend their title at theBirmingham Classic, but they made it to the final for the second consecutive year.[62]

After the 2014 US Open, Barty announced she was "[taking] a break from professional tennis".[63] She later said that she took time off from tennis because "it was too much too quickly for me as I've been travelling from quite a young age... I wanted to experience life as a normal teenaged girl and have some normal experiences."[64] Barty was ranked outside of the top 200 in singles and was No. 40 in doubles at the time.[46]

Barty became interested in potentially playing cricket after meeting with theAustralian women's national team in early 2015 to discuss her experience as a professional athlete. She was intrigued by the opportunity to play a team sport as a change from the individual sport of tennis. At the time, she had no competitive cricket experience, having only played casually with her family. Barty later approached Queensland Cricket about how she could get involved with the sport. Andy Richards, the coach of theQueensland Fire and soon-to-be coach of theBrisbane Heat, was immediately impressed with Barty's skill set, saying, "Her skill from the first time she picked up a bat was outstanding from a coach's perspective... She never missed a ball in her first session... That's what attracted me as a coach to her as a player, her ability to pick up things really quickly."[65][66][67][68]

Barty began training with the Fire in July, and also started playing for the Western Suburbs District Cricket Club, a local team that competes in Brisbane's Women's Premier CricketTwenty20 league. She had an impressive second game for the team, scoring 63 from 60 balls to go along with taking 2–13 from four overs.[65][66] Barty played in 13 matches for Western Suburbs, scoring onecentury and averaging 42.4 runs while taking eight wickets.[69] Western Suburbs ultimately won the league's grand final, with Barty ending up the team's top scorer in the match after hitting 37 from 39 balls.[70]

After Barty's performance in her second game with Western Suburbs, she also signed with the Heat for the inauguralWomen's Big Bash League (WBBL) Twenty20 season.[71] Barty made her debut in December and hit 39 off 27 balls with onesix in a match against theMelbourne Stars, the second highest score on her team.[64][72]She remained a regular member of the team, but only had a double figure score once more during the season. The Heat finished with a 7–7 record, good for sixth out of eight teams in the competition.[73] The WBBL season ended in January, while the local Brisbane league ended in February.[69]

2016–2018: Tennis return, US Open doubles champion

[edit]
Barty at the 2016 Eastbourne Trophy

Barty announced her return to professional tennis in February a few weeks after the end of the WBBL season,[74] and began working with Craig Tyzzer as her coach.[75] Barty initially only competed in doubles events on the ITF Circuit at the $25K-level. In her first two months, she played five tournaments and won three of them, including her first one back where she partnered withJessica Moore and two in back-to-back weeks in Canberra.[76][77][31]

Barty returned to singles in late May. She qualified for theEastbourne Trophy, a $50K event, where she made it to the semifinals in both singles and doubles.[78] The following week, Barty returned to the WTA Tour, where she qualified for theNottingham Open. She made it to the quarterfinals, losing to top seedKarolína Plíšková in a close match. She was happy with her performance, saying, "It's nice to know that straight off the bat I can come in and compete with the best in the world."[79] Barty also received a wildcard into qualifying atWimbledon, but did not reach the main draw.[80] After a bone stress injury in her arm, she only played in one more event that year, theWTA 125Taipei Challenger in November.[81][82]

Singles: First WTA Tour title, Elite Trophy, world No. 15

[edit]

At the start of the 2017 season, Barty picked up her first career wins at theAustralian Open, reaching the third round.[83][84] Barty's next tournament was theMalaysian Open, where she had won her first WTA singles match four years earlier. She entered the singles main draw as a qualifier and won both the singles and doubles events. This was her first career WTA singles title and helped her enter the top 100 for the first time.[85][86] Barty continued to climb the rankings after a quarterfinal showing at theInternationaux de Strasbourg on clay, where she lost to compatriotDaria Gavrilova, and a runner-up atBirmingham on grass, her best result at a Premier tournament.[87][88]

During theUS Open Series in August, Barty reached back-to-back Premier 5 rounds of 16 at theCanadian Open and theCincinnati Open, despite needing to qualify for both events,[89] and notched her first career top-10 victory at the latter defeating world No. 9Venus Williams.[90] After losing in the opening rounds of theFrench Open andWimbledon, Barty took advantage of a slightly better draw at theUS Open, as she defeatedAna Konjuh in her first match en route to reaching the third round, where she lost to the eventual champion,Sloane Stephens.[91][92] This performance brought her to No. 37 in the WTA rankings.[46]

Later in the year, Barty produced her best result of the season by reaching her first Premier 5 final at theWuhan Open. During the tournament, she defeated three top-ten players in No. 7Johanna Konta, No. 4Karolína Plíšková and No. 10Jeļena Ostapenko, but lost in the final toCaroline Garcia in three sets, despite having two chances to serve for the match.[93] Nonetheless, she rose to No. 23 in the world, setting her up both to become the top-ranked Australian a few weeks later and to qualify for theWTA Elite Trophy at the end of the season.[94] At that event, Barty advanced out of her round-robin group by winning both of her matches, but she was eliminated from the tournament byCoCo Vandeweghe.[95] Barty finished the season at a career-high ranking of No. 17 in the world.[96][46]

Barty had a strong start to the 2018 season, reaching the final of theSydney International[97] and being seeded at a Grand Slam tournament for the first time at the Australian Open, but was upset in the third round byNaomi Osaka.[98] Barty's best result during the clay-court season was at theInternationaux de Strasbourg, where she was the top seed at a WTA Tour singles event for the first time. She reached her first WTA-level clay-court semifinal, but had to retire due to a back injury.[99][100] The following week at theFrench Open, Barty had another tough draw at a Grand Slam event and was defeated bySerena Williams in the second round, despite winning the first set.[101]

Back on her favourite surface, Barty won theNottingham Open on grass for her second career WTA title. She defeated home favourite and British No. 1 Johanna Konta in the final.[102] She then recorded her first match wins atWimbledon and reached the third round, matching her best result at a Grand Slam tournament.[103] At the start of the summer hardcourt season, Barty did well at the Premier 5 events, making it to the semifinals at theCanadian Open and the third round at theCincinnati Open. She lost to world No. 1Simona Halep at both events.[104][105] At theUS Open, Barty was the 18th seed and reached the fourth round at a Grand Slam tournament for the first time, where she was defeated by Karolína Plíšková.[106]

Towards the end of the season, Barty attempted to defend her previous year's finals appearance at theWuhan Open. Although she was the only seeded player to make the semifinals, she fell one match short againstAryna Sabalenka.[107] Having maintained her top 20 ranking, she was able to qualify for the year-endElite Trophy for the second straight season. Barty was grouped with Sabalenka and Caroline Garcia and began play by losing to Sabalenka again, while winning eight games.[108] She then defeated Garcia in straight sets while only conceding seven games, meaning she could only advance if Garcia defeated Sabalenka in straight sets while losing at least eight games.[109] Garcia won the group's final match while dropping precisely eight games to send Barty into the knockout rounds.[110] Barty then defeated defending championJulia Görges and home favouriteWang Qiang to win the biggest title of her career and end the season at a career-high ranking of No. 15 in the world.[111][112][113]

Doubles: First major and Premier Mandatory titles, world No. 5

[edit]
Barty at the2018 US Open

In 2017, Barty reunited with Dellacqua as her regular doubles partner,[38] and reached the quarterfinals or better at three out of four Grand Slam tournaments during the season.[114][115] In particular, they made it to the finals at theFrench Open to become the first Australian women's doubles team to reach all four Grand Slam finals.[116] They lost in the final to the top seeded team ofBethanie Mattek-Sands andLucie Šafářová, who had also won the previous two majors.[117] Barty and Dellacqua contested six finals on the year in total, winning half of them.[38] They won theBirmingham Classic, where Barty also made it to the final in singles. This was their second career title at the event after winning it in 2013, and also their first Premier title together.[88]

Barty and Dellacqua finished the year as the third-highest ranked doubles team, earning them a spot in theWTA Finals.[118] They had narrowly missed qualifying for the event in 2013 when they were the fifth-ranked team and only the top four were accepted instead of eight.[119] In their debut, the duo were upset in the first round by the lowest-seeded team ofKiki Bertens andJohanna Larsson.[120] Individually, Barty also established a new career-high doubles world ranking of No. 11 towards end of the season.[46]

Barty and Dellacqua reached the third round at theAustralian Open. This was their last WTA tournament together before Dellacqua's retirement.[121] Barty partnered with CoCo Vandeweghe in her next three doubles events, and the pair had their best success in the United States where they won theMiami Open, Barty's first Premier Mandatory title.[122] Although Barty continued to play primarily with Vandeweghe during the rest of the season, she also played two Premier 5 tournaments withDemi Schuurs after her usual partnerElise Mertens withdrew from theItalian Open. Barty and Schuurs won both of their tournaments together, the Italian Open and theCanadian Open.[123][124] The first also helped Barty climb to a career-best WTA doubles world ranking of No. 5.[46]

Later in the season, Barty reunited with Vandeweghe and won her first career Grand Slam title at theUS Open. In the semifinals, the pair defeated the top seeded team ofBarbora Krejčíková andKateřina Siniaková, who were the reigningFrench Open andWimbledon champions. In the final, they defeated the second seeded team ofTímea Babos andKristina Mladenovic, who were the reigning Australian Open champions. Barty and Vandeweghe lost the first set and were down two championship points in the second set before coming from behind to win the last two sets in two tiebreaks, saving a third championship point in the final tiebreak.[125] This was the first time ever that a Grand Slam women's doubles final came down to a third-set tiebreak.[126]

Even though Barty and Vandeweghe only played seven tournaments together, their two big titles were enough for them to qualify as the eighth and last seed into theWTA Finals.[127] They upset Barty's other doubles partner Schuurs, who was back with Mertens, in the first round.[128] Their tournament was ended by Babos and Mladenovic in the semifinals in a rematch of the US Open final.[129]

[edit]
Barty at the 2019 Sydney International

For the second consecutive year, Barty began the season with a runner-up finish at theSydney International, this time losing toPetra Kvitová.[130] During the event, she defeated three top 15 players, includingSimona Halep for her first career victory over a current world No. 1 player.[131] At her next tournament, Barty made her first Grand Slam quarterfinal at theAustralian Open, defeatingMaria Sharapova before again losing to Kvitová, becoming the first Australian to make the quarterfinals at the event sinceJelena Dokic in2009.[132][133] After a fourth round appearance at theIndian Wells Open,[134] Barty won theMiami Open for her first Premier Mandatory title. She defeated three top-10 players in the event, including No. 2 Kvitová in the quarterfinals and No. 7Karolína Plíšková in the final. With this result, she also made her top-10 debut.[135][136]

In the lead-up to the French Open, Barty played only two clay court events. Her best result was a quarterfinal at theMadrid Open, where she lost to Halep.[137] She closed out the clay court season by winning her first Grand Slam singles title at theFrench Open, defeatingMarkéta Vondroušová in the final, dropping just four games. With the title, Barty became the first Australian to win the French Open in singles sinceMargaret Court in1973 and the first Australian to win aGrand Slam singles title sinceSam Stosur at the2011 US Open. She also rose to No. 2 in the world.[138] Barty then followed up this title with another at her next event, theBirmingham Classic, to become the No. 1 ranked player in the world. She was the second Australian to be No. 1 in the WTA singles rankings afterEvonne Goolagong Cawley.[139] Barty's win streak came to an end at 15 matches when she was defeated atWimbledon byAlison Riske in the fourth round.[140]

Barty lost the No. 1 ranking toNaomi Osaka in early August after an opening round loss at theCanadian Open.[141] The following week, she fared better at theCincinnati Open, falling toSvetlana Kuznetsova in the semifinals.[142] At theUS Open, she was upset in the fourth round for the second time in a row at a Grand Slam tournament, this time toWang Qiang.[143] Nonetheless, she regained the No. 1 ranking,[46] and rebounded during the Asian hard court season. She reached another semifinal at theWuhan Open[144] followed by a runner-up finish to Osaka at theChina Open.[145] At the end of the season, Barty made her singles debut at theWTA Finals as the top seed. After defeatingBelinda Bencic and losing to Bertens, Barty defeated Kvitová to advance out of her group.[146] In the knockout round, she defeated Karolina Plíšková and Elina Svitolina, the latter of which for the first time in six attempts, to win the tour finals. With the title, she won $4.42 million, the largest amount of prize money at a single men's or women's tournament in tennis history to date.[147][148] Barty finished the season as the year-end world No. 1[46] and won theWTA Player of the Year award, becoming the first Australian to ever receive this honour.

Barty started her 2020 season in her hometown, at theBrisbane International, but picked up a disappointing second round loss against qualifierJennifer Brady. However, she bounced back and captured her first title on home soil at theAdelaide International, defeatingDayana Yastremska in the final.[149] After this, Barty entered theAustralian Open as one of the favourites to win the title, and as the first Australian woman to ever play the tournament while being the WTA world No. 1. She lost in the semifinals to eventual championSofia Kenin, despite having two set points in each of the sets played. Nevertheless, Barty became the first Australian woman to reach the semifinals sinceWendy Turnbull in 1984 and picked up her first top ten win at a major (quarterfinals over Kvitová).

After taking a rest break, Barty returned to court making her debut at theQatar Ladies Open, the first Premier 5 tournament of the year, where she lost to Kvitová in the semifinals. She next headed toIndian Wells, but play was suspended before the tournament began due to theCOVID-19 pandemic. WTA tournaments resumed in August, but Barty decided to skip the rest of the year due to concerns related to travelling within the pandemic, which included deciding not to try to defend herFrench Open crown.[150] She finished as the year-end world No. 1 for the second consecutive season due to the change of criteria in the WTA rankings.[151]

Doubles: Premier 5 title, US Open runner-up

[edit]

With CoCo Vandeweghe injured, Barty began to regularly partner with Victoria Azarenka. The pair reached the semifinals at theMiami Open and won their first title together at theItalian Open, a Premier 5 event. They defeated the top seeded team of Krejčíková and Siniaková in both tournaments.[152] During the summer, they reached another Premier 5 semifinal at theCanadian Open, this time losing to Krejčíková and Siniaková who were again the top seeds.[153] Barty came close to defending her title at theUS Open. In the quarterfinals, she and Azarenka defeated top seeds Babos and Mladenovic, Barty's opponents in the 2018 final.[154] They made the final, but lost in straight sets toElise Mertens and Sabalenka.[155] Although they only played eight tournaments during the season, they nearly qualified for theWTA Finals, falling one spot short in ninth place.[156]

Singles: Wimbledon and Australian Open champion, 100 weeks at No. 1

[edit]

After an 11-month hiatus due to theCOVID-19 pandemic, Barty returned to the tennis courts at theYarra Valley Classic, one of the three lead-up tournaments to theAustralian Open, where she defeatedGarbiñe Muguruza in two tight sets in the final.[157] After this, Barty entered theAustralian Open as the first seed in thedraw for the second consecutive year and projected as one of the favourites to claim the title, but was knocked out byKarolína Muchová in the quarterfinals. Barty played her first tournament outside Australia in more than a year at theMiami Open, where she was the defending champion from 2019. She had to save a match point in her opening match, but then recorded her first top-10 wins of the year againstAryna Sabalenka andElina Svitolina to reach her second Miami Open final in a row. Barty defended her title by defeatingBianca Andreescu in the final after Andreescu retired from the match.[158] She became the first No. 1 seed to win the Miami Open since Serena Williams in 2015. This was also Barty's first time defending a title in singles.

Barty began the European red clay swing with her debut at theStuttgart Open, where she won her third title of the year,[159] and continued her clay-court success by posting her best result at theMadrid Open, where she lost to Sabalenka in the final. However, she was forced to retire at both theItalian Open and theFrench Open due to injuries that prevented her from playing any lead-up grass-court tournaments and delayed her comeback untilWimbledon. There, Barty beat former world No. 1 and 2018 champion,Angelique Kerber, to reach the final, where she defeatedKarolína Plíšková, becoming the first Australian woman to win the title sinceEvonne Goolagong Cawley in 1980, and the first top seed to win since Serena Williams in 2016.[160]

At the Summer Olympicswomen's singles tournament, Barty lost in the first round toSara Sorribes Tormo in straight sets.[161] At theCincinnati Open, she won the title without dropping a set defeatingJil Teichmann in the final.[162] At theUS Open, Barty was the favourite to take the title, but was defeated by Shelby Rogers in the third round.[163] After that, she decided to come back to Australia and skip the rest of the season.[164] Nevertheless, Barty achieved the year-end world No. 1 ranking for the third year in a row, matching the feat ofChris Evert,Martina Navratilova,Steffi Graf and Serena Williams,[165] and received theWTA Player of the Year award for the second time.[166]

Barty began 2022 at theAdelaide International. She went on to win the title, beating defending championIga Świątek[167] andElena Rybakina in straight sets.[168] At theAustralian Open, Barty reached the final losing only one service game and defeatedDanielle Collins to become the first Australian woman sinceChris O'Neil in 1978 to win the Australian Open.[169][170] She also became the eighth female player to win a major in three different surfaces, joining Serena Williams as the only two active players at that point to have achieved that feat. Bartydid not drop a set during the tournament.

Doubles: Spare play, Olympic bronze

[edit]

In 2021, Barty started to partner withJennifer Brady. They were not able to play many tournaments during the first half of the year, as they had to withdraw from both theAustralian Open and theFrench Open due to injuries, but managed to win the title inStuttgart. This was Brady's maiden doubles title, and Barty's first one since 2019. At the2020 Olympics, Barty partneredStorm Sanders in thewomen's doubles and reached the quarterfinals, where they were beaten by top-seeded Krejčíková and Siniaková,[171] and fellow major championJohn Peers in themixed doubles, where they went on to become bronze medalists.

At the start of the 2022 season, Barty entered the doubles tournament inAdelaide alongside Sanders and won the title, defeatingDarija Jurak Schreiber andAndreja Klepač in the final, subsequently completing the Adelaide sweep.[172] It was the third time Barty won the singles and doubles at the same tournament.

Retirement

[edit]

On 23 March 2022, Barty announced her retirement from tennis. In an interview with her friend and former doubles partner,Casey Dellacqua, Barty said, "I don't have the physical drive, the emotional want and everything it takes to challenge yourself at the very top of the level any more. I am spent." Barty became the second player to retire while holding theNo. 1 ranking afterJustine Henin (Henin briefly returned to the WTA Tour 20 months after retiring).[5] In her autobiography,My Dream Time, Barty detailed that after winning Wimbledon, "the one true dream that I wanted in tennis", she started to lose her motivation to keep playing.[173] In 2022, Barty also took up a role as "chief of inspiration" with the Australian telephone companyOptus.[174]

Upon retirement, Barty donated three of her Grand Slam tournament outfits to the State Library of Queensland to be preserved as part of their collection. The outfits are from the 2019 French Open, the 2021 Wimbledon tournament and the 2022 Australian Open.[175]

National representation

[edit]

Fed Cup

[edit]

Barty also made herFed Cup debut for Australia in2013 at the age of 16, playing in two away ties. In their February defeat to the top-seededCzech Republic, she lost thedead rubber doubles match with Dellacqua.[176] Two months later againstSwitzerland, Barty won her only match against No. 56Stefanie Vögele to clinch the tie for Australia and keep them in the top-level World Group the following year.[177]

Barty played in twoFed Cup ties for Australia in 2018. In their February tie againstUkraine, she won both of her singles matches as well as the deciding doubles rubber with Dellacqua to carry her team into the World Group playoffs. This turned out to be the last match Barty would play with Dellacqua, as well as the last match of Dellacqua's career before she officially retired in April.[178][121] In the following round, Barty won both of her singles matches against theNetherlands to help Australia win the tie 4–1 and advance back into the top-tier World Group in 2019 for the first time in four years.[179]

In the World Group, Barty was instrumental in leading Australia to the2019 Fed Cup final. She won all six of her rubbers in the first two rounds to help Australia advance against theUnited States andBelarus, with both ties won by a tight score of 3–2. She partnered withPriscilla Hon in her doubles rubber against the United States, andSamantha Stosur in the doubles against Belarus.[180][181] Australia facedFrance in the final, which was played at home atPerth Arena. Barty continued her Fed Cup success in her first singles rubber with adouble bagel victory overCaroline Garcia. However, her 15-rubber win streak in Fed Cup came to an end in her next match with a three-set loss toKristina Mladenovic.Ajla Tomljanović won her second singles rubber to set up a decisive doubles rubber between Barty and Stosur for Australia and Garcia and Mladenovic for France. Garcia and Mladenovic won the match in straight sets to clinch the Fed Cup for France. The final day had 13,842 spectators in attendance.[182][183]

Hopman Cup

[edit]

"I can't believe it myself, I don't remember anything about it. This tops [the junior title at] Wimbledon, this trumps everything. I'm just so happy with the way I played."

—Barty speaking on her Hopman Cup win over Schiavone at age 16.[184]

Barty represented Australia in theHopman Cup twice. She made her first appearance at the event in2013 where she competed alongsideBernard Tomic after Dellacqua withdrew before the tournament due to a foot injury. The Australians finished their round-robin group in second place behind Serbia. They defeated Germany and Italy in their first and last ties, but lost to Serbia in a close tie that was decided by amatch tiebreak in the mixed doubles. During the tie against Italy, Barty won a lopsided singles match against former French Open champion and world No. 35Francesca Schiavone in just 55 minutes, the biggest singles win of her career at the time.[184]

Barty did not return to the tournament until2019 where she teamed up withMatthew Ebden. Australia finished runner-up in their round-robin group again. The pair won their first two ties against France and Spain,[185][186] but lost both of their singles matches in the decisive tie against the German team ofAngelique Kerber andAlexander Zverev who won all of their ties and the group.[187]

Olympic Games

[edit]

Barty representedAustralia at the 2020 Summer Olympics in three events. Insingles, Barty was seeded No. 1 and lost toSara Sorribes Tormo in round one. Indoubles, Barty partneredStorm Sanders where they reached the quarterfinal. Inmixed doubles, Barty partneredJohn Peers and they won bronze, Australia's first ever medal in an Olympic mixed doubles competition.[188]

Playing style

[edit]
Barty serving

Barty had an all-court game and a crafty style of play.[189][190] Her favourite surface was grass, despite initially not liking that surface because she had limited experience playing on it while growing up.[190] Barty also performed well on hard courts, where she won her first WTA singles title and reached her first Premier 5 level final.[85][93] She won both singles and doubles titles on all three major surfaces.[31]

Barty's short stature and diverse array of shots led her to be compared to former world No. 1 and five-time Grand Slam singles championMartina Hingis by David Taylor, one of Hingis' former coaches.[191] She had solidgroundstrokes from theforehand andbackhand sides. In particular, she used her powerful forehand to create sharp angles on cross-court shots. Her kick serve and backhand slice are also two of her better shots. Barty's two-handed backhand was comparatively weaker than her forehand; as such, she utilised her exceptional one-handed backhand slice to create opportunities to attack with her aggressive, powerful topspin forehand. Barty's doubles game translated well to singles, as she frequently came to the net, and excelled at volleying. She used her variety of shots to trouble her opponents.[192][193] Despite her height, Barty was an excellent server, with her serve being recorded as high as 115 mph (185 km/h). She finished the 2018 season at fourth on the WTA Tour inaces with a total of 297, nearly five per match. She was also second in percentage of service points won that year among players with at least ten matches, behind onlySerena Williams.[194]

Thanasi Kokkinakis, one of her compatriot contemporaries as well as one of her mixed doubles partners, has described her game as, "Ash plays different to most girls. She likes to come into the net, she uses her slice very well and she's crafty. Whereas a lot of girls like to hit the ball hard and flat, she plays a little bit differently, she plays with a bit more control... and she makes things awkward for her opponent."[190]

Personal life

[edit]

Barty took a break from professional tennis from September 2014 until February 2016, and played semi-professional cricket during the second half of that hiatus. Although she gave no reasons at the time, she later said, "I needed some time to refresh mentally more than anything. It became a bit of a slog for me and I wasn't enjoying my tennis as much as I would have liked to."[193] Her family and coaches all supported her decision.[13] Barty had no intention of retiring and continued to play casually during her hiatus, saying, "It was never in mind that I'd retired as such... I'd been coaching and holding a racket pretty much every day so I wasn't completely out of practice."[193] During her time off, she also pursued her hobbies such as fishing, and built a new house close to her family.[13] She ultimately decided to return to the sport, commenting, "After a break and trying other things, I missed tennis and decided that I wanted to come back."[16]

Barty is the National Indigenous Tennis Ambassador forTennis Australia.[195] The goal of this position is to promote more Indigenous participation in the sport of tennis. Barty has embraced her heritage and her role as an ambassador, saying, "I'm a very proud Indigenous woman and I think that for me taking on this role is something very close to my heart. I'm very excited."[195] She was recognised as the Female Sportsperson of the Year at theNational Dreamtime Awards, a ceremony that honours Indigenous Australians, in both 2017 and 2018, the first two editions of the awards.[196][197] Barty was honoured as theYoung Australian of the Year in 2020.[198]

Barty is a supporter of theRichmond Football Club in theAustralian Football League andManchester United in theEnglish Premier League.[17] She presented the premiership cup to Richmond when they won the2020 AFL Grand Final.[199]

Barty has been in a relationship with Australian professional golfer Garry Kissick since 2017,[200] and announced their engagement in November 2021.[201] In September 2020, Barty won the championship at theBrookwater Golf and Country Club,[202] where she had originally met Kissick in 2016.[203] Barty married Kissick on 23 July 2022.[204][205]

On 2 July 2023, she gave birth to a son Hayden,[206] and in June 2025 to a daughter Jordan.[207]
