Shane Warne's death at a Thailand villa, his statue at the Melbourne Cricket Ground remains decorated with flowers, cigarettes and beer cans left by fans mourning the loss of one of cricket's most authentic characters. Australians will remember Warne at a televised memorial service at his home stadium on Wednesday, with nearly 50,000 people to attend the venue where the spin-bowling great captured his 700th Test wicket against Ashes foes England. Many will be seated in the southern grandstand, re-named the SK Warne Stand in the wake of his death at age 52. "He made mistakes and had a few hiccups but he was genuine about stuff," said Bill Patterson of Melbourne, sharing a drink with friends by Warne's statue. "He was just a normal person as well as being amazing from a cricketing point of view. He was a bit of a rogue but a good fellow and people recognise that." Australia loves sporting heroes like few other countries. The captaincy of the Test team has long been dubbed "the second most important office" after that of the Prime Minister.
MELBOURNE : More than three weeks after Shane Warne's death at a Thailand villa, his statue at the Melbourne Cricket Ground remains decorated with flowers, cigarettes and beer cans left by fans mourning the loss of one of cricket's most authentic characters.
Barty dropped the bombshell weeks after becoming the first home Australian Open champion in 44 years and so winning a Grand Slam crown on three different surfaces.
World number one Ashleigh Barty stunned tennis on Wednesday by announcing her retirement from the sport aged just 25, saying she had fulfilled her dreams and was "spent physically".
Ashleigh Barty excels at so many sports that she has played professional cricket and even won a golf tournament, but it was in tennis where she rose to become the best in the world. In January she took her place among the giants of Australian sport by winning her home Grand Slam. It was fitting that Chris O'Neil, the last home-grown player to win the Australian Open, in 1978, was in the stadium to witness Barty ending a 44-year hoodoo and thrilling a nation glued to their televisions. Less than two months later, Barty on Wednesday announced her shock retirement from tennis aged just 25. She leaves the sport having been world number one for more than two years and with three Grand Slam singles titles, having also won the French Open in 2019 and Wimbledon last year.
