Former Australian Open tennis hopeful turned OnlyFans model Ashley Harkleroad has built up a huge social media following thank in part to her raunchy snaps.
Harkleroad, who was on the professional tour between 2000 and 2012, pocketing almost £1million in prize money - posed for Playboy during her career and went one step further in 2022.
Having created an OnlyFans account, the 37-year-old also shows off plenty on Instagram to her 100k followers where she once showed plenty of skin with an open jacket and nothing underneath.

American Harkleroad, who was once ranked No. 39 in the world, chose a different path to the likes of Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova with whom she used to compete.
With an Instagram bio that explains her former top 40 WTA rank as well as her spot on the cover of Playboy back in 2008, it also includes the words: "I live in a bikini."
Harkleroad was back in the headlines in the summer after taking to Instagram to promote her OnlyFans venture by saying: "I'm the first Professional tennis player ever to be on the cover of Playboy and now on Onlyfans!"

She used the account to describe herself as 'sporty, flirty, playful, fun and in my prime' having been on Playboy more than a decade earlier.
Harkleroad, who reached the third round of the Australian Open in singles and the quarter-finals in a doubles pairing, was inspired to pose in Playboy by swimmer Amanda Beard.
She explained at the time: "I thought about it, and it was something that I did. I’m proud of my body. I was representing a female athlete’s body."
One current tennis star who has raised eyebrows on social media is Camila Giorgi, who has also has a huge social media following thanks to both her career on the court and time as a lingerie model.
Giorgi has stood firm against the doubters, as she did when her outfit at the French Open last year when she was pulled up by the match umpire for the size of the advertising.
She said in response: "I don't have any change, this is my only dress. I played with it before."
