"I feel good leading up to an Australian Open like I have every year" says Barty after triumph in Adelaide

Barty faced Elena Rybakina in the final and cruised rather easily to the finish line showing off some more tremendous serving skill. Her serve was a powerful weapon for her this week both in the singles and doubles as the Australian swept both trophies. On her serve she said:

"I probably felt like overall this week my serve has been a real weapon. I felt like I struggled with rhythm early on in the week and I've been able to progressively get better and better. To go a few matches unbroken is really good."

Talking about the match, Barty said:

"We've obviously had a brilliant week, been able to work progressively through each match. I got better and better. I felt like today there were really a few key moments early in the first set to gain momentum. I was really happy to be able to get a couple of early breaks in the second and run away with it."

Asked about the Australian Open she admitted that winning a trophy here does not change much for her in terms of preparation:

"I feel good leading up to an Australian Open like I have every year. Each and every preparation is unique, each and every preparation is different. So we take it for what comes and what it is, move on, try and do the best that we can in every opportunity, whether that's here in Adelaide or it's in Melbourne. It has absolutely no effect on the way that I prepare or the way I'm thinking leading forward just because it's a Grand Slam. Doesn't change for us. We look forward, we do what we can, then we see how we go."
