Ash Barty 10 Fast Facts, Biography, Wiki
Barty took a break from professional tennis from September 2014 until February 2016, and ended up playing 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.” Her family and coaches all supported her decision. 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.” During her time off, she also pursued her hobbies such as fishing; and built a new house close to her family. 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.” Barty is the National Indigenous Tennis Ambassador for Tennis Australia. 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.” She was recognised as the Female Sportsperson of the Year at the National Dreamtime Awards, a ceremony that honours Indigenous Australians, in both 2017 and 2018, the first two editions of the awards. Barty was honoured as the Young Australian of the Year in 2020. Barty is a supporter of a variety of sports teams including the Richmond Football Club in the Australian Football League, Manchester United in the English Premier League, and Wests Tigers in the National Rugby League. She presented the premiership cup to Richmond when they won the 2020 AFL Grand Final. Barty has been in a relationship with Australian professional golfer Garry Kissick since 2017. In September 2020, Barty won the championship at the Brookwater Golf Club, where she had originally met Kissick in 2016.
