Serena Williams claims she was unaware Barty is world No.1Serena Williams claims she didn't know Ashleigh Barty was world No.1, but says the Australian ace is 'the sweetest, cutest girl on tour'. I'm surprised she didn't throw a fit because she wasn't handed 1 So, if you know about major attributes like sweet and cute in other players .. but you don’t know about who is No1 in your own sport then you’re telling lies God that's condescending from Serena.
