There she lost in the first round to number one seed Vania King 1-6 2-6.[2] Partnered with Casey Dellacqua, Barty also received a wildcard into the doubles tournament, reaching the semi-finals before bowing out to the American pairing of Spears and Kops-Jones 7-5 6-7(3) [7-10]. Barty then received a wildcard into the Hobart International, losing in the first round to Bethanie Mattek-Sands 2-6 2-6.[3] Due to winning the Australian Wild Card playoff last year Barty was entered into the women's singles at the Australian Open, where she lost 2-6 6-7(4) to Anna Tatishvili in the first round.[4] She also entered the women's and mixed doubles, pairing up with fellow junior prodigy Laura Robson and Benjamin Mitchell respectively.
