Ashleigh Barty gets high praise from Ben Crowe
Ben Crowe has been coaching Ashleigh Barty since 2018, and he looks after her overall performance. The Australian coach has a vast pool of clients in the sports world, as he is a mindset coach. He is the reason behind Barty’s rise up the ranks towards becoming World No. 1.
“Ash has done a beautiful job of creating that separation and focusing on the human being and less so the ‘human-doing’. The big lesson is focus on the ‘human-being’, and less so on the ‘human-doing’ and the power of acceptance and gratitude are incredible superpowers to enable you to let go of FOOPO (Fear of Other People’s Opinions) and own your story,” said Crowe in an interview with ABC Radio Brisbane.

“And if you can focus on that [your own story], and avoid these distractions, it doesn’t mean you’ll win — it just means you’ll bring the best version of you to the dancefloor each day,” said Crowe.
