Forget courtside kisses and Insta-perfect love stories. Ash Barty and Garry Kissick are rewriting the playbook on what a power couple looks like—and it’s not what you expect.
While the tennis world was still reeling from Barty’s shock retirement, the former World No.1 had already set her sights on a different kind of partnership. Enter Garry—golf pro, everyday Aussie, and the man who quietly stood beside Ash through titles, retirements, and now parenthood.
They met the old-school way—at a golf club. No DMs, no PR setups. Just shared passion and a lot of laughs. And since then? They’ve kept things refreshingly real. No red carpet overexposure, no “brand couple” theatrics. Just two people, crazy about each other, thriving off the grid.
When they tied the knot in 2022, there was no media frenzy. Just a simple, private ceremony, a snapshot on social media, and a world that collectively said, “Wait, when did that happen?”
But what fans really didn’t see coming was how seamlessly they’ve stepped into the role of new parents. Baby Hayden arrived in 2023, and if Garry’s grin in photos is anything to go by, this guy is loving dad life. Ash, meanwhile, is showing the same grace and grit off the court that once earned her three Grand Slam titles.
Together, they’re the kind of couple that keeps things grounded—whether it’s cheering each other on in sport or navigating night feeds. No scandals, no theatrics. Just vibes, golf jokes, and a whole lot of love.
In a world where celebrity couples crash and burn by breakfast, Ash and Garry are proof that quiet, steady love is still undefeated.
