Ashleigh Barty's #RolandGarros campaign/title defense ends in retirement, trailing Magda Linette 1-6, 2-2. Undoubtedly the wisest thing to do for Ash but absolutely gutting to be honest. Please be healthy for grass 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Barty retires at 1-6 2-2 against Linette due to injury, out of Roland Garros

Ashleigh Barty is out of the Roland Garros after retiring with injury in the 2nd set of her match vs Linette.
It was not a good day for Barty who did not look quite right from the start of the match. She had to save 3 breakpoints in the first game and she did so but things only got worse. Her movement on the court looked off which was strange as it's one of her biggest strengths.
Linette kept applying the pressure and move Barty around the court which only made things worse. The Polish player broke Barty twice en route to a 6-1 1st set finish. Barty took an MTO after the set and continued to play in the 2nd but it was evident that nothing changed and she decided to retire.
It is not known what sort of injury it is but it is presumably tied with the lower body as her movement is severely affected. Retirement is a wise thing to do with the Wimbledon not far away. Get well soon, Ash.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
