Tennis legend and Wiradjuri woman Evonne Goolagong Cawley has paid a heartfelt tribute to “little sister” Ash Barty, saying she just sensed it was “her time” to win Wimbledon during Naidoc week. Goolagong Cawley left her in no doubt. “Because everyone reacts differently when they win Wimbledon for the first time. You’re in shock, just as Ash was at the end there,” Goolagong Cawley said. That was my first grand slam and that same year I won Wimbledon in 1971.
