Barty wins drought-breaking Australian Open women's titleMELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Ash Barty recovered from 5-1 down in the second set to win the Australian Open final 6-3, 7-6 (2) over Danielle Collins on Saturday, ending a 44-year drought for Australian women at their home Grand Slam tournament. Remarkable comeback in the 2nd set. Women's tennis is far more exciting in terms of diverse results. I'm sorry but I can only care about this if I can know exactly what her vacation status is. Until then i feel threatened Should be playing 5 set matches in the majors🙄
