By Australian Associated PressPublished: 07:26 EDT, 31 July 2021 | Updated: 07:34 EDT, 31 July 2021Newly-crowned Wimbledon champion Ash Barty has added an Olympic bronze medal to her collection after Novak Djokovic was a late scratching from the pair's much-anticipated mixed doubles showdown in Tokyo. But it secured Australia's first Olympic tennis medal since Barty's Fed Cup captain Alicia Molik claimed bronze in the women's singles in Athens 17 years ago. The 25-year-old can showcase the bronze medal next to her coveted Wimbledon trophy, the 2019 French Open title and 2018 US Open doubles crown with Coco Vandeweghe. For Peers, 33, Olympic bronze will rank among his career highlights. He won the 2017 Australian Open doubles with Finn Henri Kontinen, as well as two season-ending championships.
