Retired tennis superstar Ash Barty has married her longtime partner Garry Kissick.
The 26-year-old exchanged vows in a private ceremony in Queensland earlier this month.
Barty reached the pinnacle of world tennis as No.1 during a decorated career on the WTA tour.
Her three grand slam victories included the 2020 French Open, Wimbledon in 2021 and a hometown success in this year’s Australian Open.
She announced her retirement from professional tennis in March.
Barty posted a wedding day photo on her Instagram account on Saturday night.

Kissick is a trainee professional at Brookwater Golf Club, where the couple met seven years ago.
The pair announced their engagement on November 23 2021, after Garry proposed a week earlier and Ash said “yes”.
Barty shocked the sporting world earlier this year when she quit tennis at the age of 25.
The proud Ngarigo woman recently took home the 2022 National NAIDOC Week Award for Person of the Year, recognised for her sporting prowess, commitment to youth education and encouraging young First Nations people to explore their passions.
