Ashley Harkleroad's biography

Ashley Harkleroad's biographyTennis Player
Born: 2 May 1985
Birthplace: Rossville, Georgia
Best known as: Midriff-baring young American tennis star
Tennis pro Ashley Harkleroad made a splash at age 16 when she appeared at the 2001 U.S. Open in extra-tight shorts and a midriff-baring top. She lost in the first round, but the outfit and her long blonde ponytail earned her comparisons to another tennis heartthrob, Anna Kournikova. Earlier the same year she had teamed with Argentina's Gisella Dulko to win the girls' doubles title at Wimbledon. In both 2000 and 2001 she reached the #1 ranking in U.S. women's 18-and-under tennis, but by 2006 she had fallen in the world adult rankings considerably, with 39th being her highest career rank. She has persevered as a reliable player, and in 2008 won two singles matches to lead the American team to a first-round victory over Germany in the Federation Cup.
