In some breaking news out of the French capital of Paris overnight, it has been confirmed that there may be a link between not carrying on like a pelican and having success on the tennis court.
This comes after Ash Barty stormed home to beat Czech Marketa Vondrousova 6-1, 6-3 in the final of the French Open, and win her first ever Grand Slam Singles Title (Ash already won a Doubles Slam Title in 2018).
The incredible achievement for the likeable racquet and ball player comes only a couple of years after she gave up playing cricket as her primary sport, and caps off an inspirational rise to the top.
Following her humble victory and acceptance of the trophy, Tennis Australia’s sports psychologists are now looking deeper into how much of a factor not carrying on like a galah on and off the tennis court played in her win and ascension into the elite echelons of the game.
“Yeah, obviously it’s something we have to seriously look at now,” a spokesperson said regarding the tennis player whose repairing some of the damage done to the reputation of Ipswich.
“We are still trying to figure out exactly how she can appear so likeable and inspirational on the court without having to have at least one blow up a tournament.”
“Maybe it’s got something to do with the fact she enjoys playing the game and loves travelling around the world playing a sport she loves.”
“We are looking into it, don’t worry.”
He then told us he had to end the interview and asked that we please don’t refer to her win as a ‘Barty Party’ in our headline.
More to come.
