Ashleigh Barty had the unenviable task of having to meet Serena Williams in the first round of Melbourne. Even the help of her hometown crowd didn't help the cause of the youngster but you could really see she tried her best to at least, make a dent in the champion's armor. She eventually lost 26 16, but at least, Ashleigh got a new fan in me! She's only 17 anyway, and she should continuously improve her game!
