As Australian tennis legend Ashleigh Barty officially called it quits, Polish player Iga Świątek is set to replace her as world No 1.
“There is no better person,” Barty is quoted in Tennis World USA, in response to Świątek levelling up. “She’s an incredible person, a great tennis player. The way that she’s brought this fresh, fearless energy on to the court has been incredible.”
Świątek revealed to the press that she was unaware a retiring player could actually request for their name to be taken off rankings following retirement. “I was really emotional,” Świątek revealed via WTA Tennis, admitting that she was “crying for a long time” upon hearing about Barty’s retirement.
