Barty retired for completely different reasons, so comparisons are irrelevant.
Yes, if she leaves after winning the US Open, that would be extraordinary.
Dan Evans is into the Canadian Open semi-finals, though Jack Draper lost.
Emma Radacanu plays Serena Williams for the first time in the 1st round of the Cincinnati open tomorrow.

Evans got beat by Carreno Busta, who plays Hurkacz in the final.
Raducanu played very well in beating Serena Williams 6-4 6-0 in Cincinnati.
Cameron Norrie faces Croatian Borna Coric in the semi finals of the Cincinnati Masters shortly. He has already claimed victory over Andy Murray and an excellent quarter final triumph against Carlos Alcaraz to reach the last four. Looking in good shape with the US Open approaching.
He got beat in straight sets, though.
Emma Raducanu returned to winning ways in her opening Slovenia Open match
I think Jodie Burrage also won at the same event, but Harriet Dart lost in 3 sets.
Burrage lost her Last 16 match in straight sets, and Raducanu lost hers in a decider.
