Magazine Covers Advance Career

Tennis star Ashley Harkleroad is on the cover as Miss August of Playboy hitting the newsstands on Friday. Harkleroad is currently ranked 65th in the world, although she has been as high as No. 39 in June 2003. She isn't the first tennis star to expose herself, Serena Williams - a regular opponent has showed off her assets in Jane magazine. Harkleroad says posing in Playboy wasn't a hard decision because she doesn't consider herself shy and that Playboy is a class operation.
