Her achievement is not surprising to anyone, as she has been playing consistently on the tour for the past few years. In this tournament also, she played like a true world no.1 and won the whole thing without dropping a set. Her next target should be the French Open, which will take place in May. If Barty continues this form, she will clinch that Grand Slam as well.
