Asked about it after her win over Yastremska, Barty said it's the first time that's happened.
"Well, I mean, it was my first marriage proposal, so - I mean, I said, 'Man, I'm not really available at the moment,'"
"It's incredible the support that I get from the Aussie fans.
"I love it that there is a little bit of Aussie humor in it, as well.
"I love that banter. I just love it. Yeah. Sorry, mate. Not this time."
