Shock exit: Ash Barty’s classy response as her Wimbledon dream is crushed

<p>Ash Barty is choosing to remain positive after a surprising loss against free-swinging American Alison Riske.</p> <p>The beloved Aussie tennis star’s dream of winning back-to-back grand slams has taken a hit after the world No. 55 brought an end to Barty’s incredible 15-match unbeaten run.</p> <p>The world number 1 fell 3-6, 6-2, 6-3 on Monday and has taken her loss graciously, saying she had “absolutely no regrets.”</p> <p>“We’ve planned our days and prepared as best that we can. Today wasn’t my day,” Barty said.</p> <p>“I didn’t win a tennis match. It’s not the end of the world. It’s a game. I love playing the game. I do everything in my power to try and win every single tennis match. But that’s not the case.</p> <p>“It’s disappointing right now. Give me an hour or so, we’ll be all good. The sun’s still going to come up tomorrow.</p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"> <p dir="ltr">There's the backhand slice working to perfection for Ash Barty already 👌<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Wimbledon?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Wimbledon</a> <a href="https://t.co/9Pgb94MhWb">pic.twitter.com/9Pgb94MhWb</a></p> — 7Sport (@7Sport) <a href="https://twitter.com/7Sport/status/1148176919264804864?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 8, 2019</a></blockquote> <p>Karolina Pliskova will take the title as world No. 1 if she reaches the semi-finals this week.</p> <p>“It’s out of my control,” the Queensland star said of her ranking.</p> <p>“We’ve done absolutely everything. I’m so proud of myself and my team over the last six to eight weeks. We’ve had an incredible trip, incredible couple of months.</p> <p>“If Karolina plays some good tennis, gets to that, then she’ll deserve it. No fighting that.”</p> <p>Barty paid homage to Riske who had undertaken an extra four hours on court than the Australian in order to get this far.</p> <p>“You just have to look at her stats on a grass court to show just how dangerous she is. She’s very comfortable on the grass court. It complements her game well,” Barty said.</p> <p>“In the crunch moments, she came up with her best tennis. When her back is against the wall, she plays really well typically. She did that today. All credit to her.</p> <p>“She deserves to be in the quarter-finals.”</p> <p>The Aussie tennis star will return to her home in Brisbane for some well-deserved rest before kicking off in her American hardcourt campaign in Montreal starting from August 5.</p> <p>“It’s also important to really celebrate what we’ve been able to achieve over the last eight weeks. It’s been an extremely positive time for me and my team,” she said.</p> <p>“Go and rest and recover with the family back home, then switch focus back to the hard courts.</p> <p>“In the US, which I love that time of year, I love getting back over to the summertime there.</p> <p>“I have some really good memories from last year. We go back, we knuckle down, train again, then we go again.”</p>

Cameron Daddo reveals the secret that saved his broken marriage

<p>Cameron Daddo and wife Alison Brahe have forever been known as Australia’s “golden couple”.</p> <p>The dashing TV presenter and the beautiful model tied the knot in 1991, marking their commitment of a lifetime to one another.</p> <p>Now, 28 years and three kids later, the pair are revealing all their secrets, the good, the bad and the ugly.</p> <p>They’re parents to daughters Lotus, 23, and Bodhi, 13, and son River, 19, and according to the famous couple, they’ve dealt with everything life could possibly throw at them.</p> <p>Last week, the two launched <em>Separate Bathrooms And Other Handy Marriage Tips</em>, a candid podcast on the ins and outs of marriage.</p> <p>“Anything you can throw at a marriage – we’ve done it!” Cameron told <a rel="noopener" href="https://www.nowtolove.com.au/celebrity/celeb-news/cameron-daddo-alison-brahe-marriage-56137" target="_blank"><em>Woman’s Day</em></a>.</p> <p>“We’ve lived in multiple countries, we’ve had kids, and we’ve been separated, and we’ve been bankrupt,” Alison said, also revealing that she and her husband have had hours of marriage counselling.</p> <p>Earlier in the year, Cameron opened up about his unfaithfulness to his wife when he was living in the US in 1994.</p> <p>“I was the one who left the marriage,” said the 54-year-old. And when it came to leaving the past behind, “honesty was the best policy”. Though he admits his marriage hasn’t been the same since.</p> <p>Alison says the reasoning behind the podcast was so she could break the false expectations many have before going into a marriage. Her inspiration were the many fans who put the two on a pedestal, labelling their relationship as “couple goals” or saying they wish they could “have what you have".</p> <p>“You don’t get to 28 years of marriage without a hell of a lot of work and struggles – and a fair chunk of pain and tears,” said the 49-year-old former model.</p> <p>“But what you do get is a massive amount of learning – you learn forgiveness and there’s an enormous amount of self-growth. We just didn’t want anyone thinking that their marriage or relationship sucked in comparison to ours.”</p> <p>And when it comes to romance, Alison and Cameron say that there’s no one size fits all.</p> <p>"Everyone's definition of romance is going to be different," Alison explains, saying that while some may appreciate flowers and chocolates, another may expect something completely different.</p> <p>When it comes to Cameron, he just wants someone who will listen. </p> <p>“I find it very sexy – when someone asks you a question and listens, and actually pays attention,” he said.</p> <p>But when it comes to the saving grace that kept their marriage going, Cameron said it was actions that allowed them to move forward.</p> <p>"I read somewhere that love is a verb," he says. "The feeling of love comes from the action of love and if you're falling out of love, choose the action to love them! That's where the feelings of love start to grow from."</p>
