SYDNEY (Reuters) - While millions of their compatriots will stay up late into the night to watch Ash Barty try and win the French Open on Saturday, her parents will be stranded just a couple of hundred miles away from Roland Garros.
Australian media reported on Saturday that Rob and Josie Barty were already in the air on their way to England when their 23-year-old daughter sealed her epic semi-final victory over teenager Amanda Anisimova in Paris.
