Barty's victory in 2021 fulfils a dream that leaves her wondering how long she wants to carry on. In her retirement message Barty -- who won the French Open in 2019 -- described her Wimbledon crown as her "one true dream". "I've had a lot of incredible moments in my career that have been pivotal moments and Wimbledon last year changed a lot for me as a person," she said, describing the emotion of an athlete who has worked hard her entire life "for one goal". "To be able to win Wimbledon -- which was my dream, the one true dream that I wanted in tennis -- that really changed my perspective." Even after Wimbledon "there was just a little part of me that wasn't quite satisfied, wasn't quite fulfilled", Barty now says. "And then came the challenge of the Australian Open."
