The 2021 season was one of the most successful seasons for the Australian who won 5 titles this season which included the 2021 Wimbledon Championships, two WTA-1000 titles in Miami and Cincinnati and two tour titles in Melbourne and Stuttgart to end the season with a season record of 42-8 and titles across all surfaces.

During this sensational run, Garry was in the stands for most of the tournaments despite strict bio-bubble restrictions and was also present when Barty won her 2nd Grand Slam title in Wimbledon. As a proud partner, he often posts pictures of them with the winning trophy and is quickly gaining popularity among tennis fans for his support to Barty while managing his Golf career.

With Barty ending her season early to spend some time home, fans are connecting the dots why she made that decision and despite missing her on the Tour for the final 2 months, with such big news announced, there is nothing but blessings for the couple and excitement to see the 25-year old back on Tour next year at her home Slam.
