World No. 1 and Wimbledon champion Ashleigh Barty pulled out of the season-ending WTA Finals on Saturday, opting to remain at home and focus on preparing for the Australian summer.
The Australian has not played since a shock third-round loss at the US Open in September and has now formally ended a year that earned her five titles, including a second major at Wimbledon after her French Open triumph in 2019. “I wanted to let everyone know that I won’t be competing in any further tournaments in 2021, including the WTA Finals in Mexico,” Barty, 25, said in a statement.
