Australian world No. 1 Ashleigh Barty on Wednesday (March 23) announced her
shock retirement from professional tennis at

friend Casey Dellacqua. "Today is difficult and filled with emotion for me
as I announce my retirement from tennis," Barty wrote in the caption.
"I wasn't sure how to share this news with you so I asked my good friend
@caseydellacqua to help me. "I am so thankful for everything this sport
has given me and leave feeling proud and fulfilled.
"Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way, I'll always be
grateful for the lifelong memories that we created together. "More to come
