Now, after her significant victory in the Australian Open 2022, the impact has caused a spike in her asset value. However, Barty’s Asset Power Score, which is the measure of awareness and likeability of a Sportsperson or celebrity, is higher than everyone.

Moreover, Gemba Group Managing Director said that Barty’s numbers can not get higher than the current data. “To be honest, it will be hard for her to increase those numbers,” Gemba’s managing director Andrew Condon said.
