Australian tennis player Ashleigh Barty beat out Danielle Collins 6-3,7-6 (2) to become the women’s singles champion at the Australian Open in Melbourne Saturday night. Australia had gone 43 years without a singles win at their own open until Barty’s win. The last was Chris O’Neil in January 1979 at the 1978 edition of the tournament in Kooyong. Barty,25, has dominated the entire tournament, where she didn’t lose a single set.
