Good on her.
She's achieved what she wanted to, she's not motivated by money, records or fame, she's got more than enough cash to do what she want's.
Class act on and off the court

Yep, spot on Stui.

Pure speculation but there is a rumour going around that Barty wants to play with Richmond in the AFLW next season. Good on her if this is true. An absolute legend on and off the Court. Shame that a certain male tennis player doesn’t show the same dignity 🤐

A great champion.
Good luck to her whatever she decides to pursue in the future.
