Ashleigh Barty may be retired from tennis but hasn't stopped giving back to the sport returning to tennis sort of at the
Australian Open Kids Tennis Day event.
Barty received a rapturous reception as she walked on to the Rod Laver Arena and was joined on court by current World No.1 and the favourite to take her Australian Open crown in
Iga Swiatek as well as multiple time champion,
Victoria Azarenka.
Nick Kyrgios was also billed as part of the festivities as two of the biggest athletes in Australia appeared also alongside the likes of Sam Stosur and Jannik Sinner.
