Barty shoots down ‘advantage’ claim as pressure grows on ending 43-year drought – Fox Sports
World No.1 Ash Barty on Sunday tempered rising expectations of breaking our 43-year Australian Open drought, preferring to simply enjoy her long-awaited comeback….
The Australian last week played her first match in 11 months after opting to remain home in relatively Covid-19 free Queensland state during the pandemic and even decided against defending her French Open crown.
Having not left the country, Barty was not required to undergo a two-week quarantine that was mandatory for players arriving from overseas, leading No.9 Petra Kvitova to suggest she was at an advantage ahead of the years first Grand Slam.
