Time Out says

Trade trams for racquets as tennis legends Ash Barty, Casey Dellacqua, Jim Courier and Alicia Molik battle it out on Bourke Street

If you're among the many Australians devasted by Ash Barty's surprise retirement, then tune in for this breaking news: Barty is playing a one-day-only match on Bourke Street, and you're invited. 

On Sunday, January 29, Barty and tennis greats Casey Dellacqua, Jim Courier and Alicia Molik will play a doubles match on a custom-made court in front of Myer's flagship Melbourne store. The event is sponsored by Myer and Mastercard, and after the foursome battles it out, Myer ambassador Kris Smith will see how he fares against these legends. 

Gates open at 10.30am and the event will run from 11am to 1pm. It's free to attend for all Melburnians, but you must sign up for a ticket through the website. If you can't score a good view of the court, you'll also be able to catch all of the action on jumbo screens positioned around the area or via the Myer Facebook page
