Ashleigh Barty is one of the fashionable names in women's tennis. At 24 years old, the tiny Australian tennis player occupies the leadership of the WTA ranking and he has already achieved great successes in tennis such as the Roland Garros title last year, although he has already announced that he will not compete at the US Open this year.
However, Asheligh Barty's passage through tennis has not been a bed of roses. In fact, in an interview with ABC Australia, the tennis player confessed that she switched from tennis to cricket in 2014 to play for the Brisbane Heat to find herself after shining in junior tournaments. “I think I needed to find myself. I felt bad and a little lost in the first part of my career. I was very lucky because I succeeded but I was still very homey. I didn't want to lose the love of my family and I felt like I wanted to go back to them.” .
Barty believes that cricket helped her a lot in maintaining her relationship with her family and her self-confidence. “The time in cricket made me improve a lot. It improved my relationship with my family and also with myself. In cricket I also met people who had different education and different ideas about the sport.”
However, Barty began to miss tennis. “I had a conversation with Casey Dellacqua where I thought, 'I miss trying myself out and competing in tennis and doing my best.' As an athlete, I missed that feeling of a job well done and a good preparation and then have a chance. “
One of Barty's greatest successes was last year's Roland Garros title, something that, despite having blurred memories of that final, he will never forget. “I still don't know if it was real. I have blurry memories of that game and the moment before winning the title. The best thing was to turn around and see my team. I will never forget that.”
Barty continues to set goals and one of them is to succeed at Wimbledon on the grass of London. “My dream is to win Wimbledon. It has been difficult for me to say it openly, but it is what I want. Winning Junior Wimbledon was special and gave me an idea of what it would really be like to win at senior level. “
