THE HALL OF FAME RING
International Tennis Hall of Fame rings are custom made for each Hall of Famer, signifying their membership in tennis' most elite club. The rings are not presented during the Induction Ceremony. Rather, they are saved and presented at another special time - generally at a tennis event that has particular meaning to the Hall of Famer being honored, providing an opportunity to celebrate that individual in front of their family, friends, and fans around the globe.
MARIA SHARAPOVA AND BOB & MIKE BRYAN RECEIVE THEIR ITHF RINGS
Two days after their memorable induction into the International Tennis Hall of Fame, Maria Sharapova and Bob and Mike Bryan received their official Hall of Fame rings inside Arthur Ashe Stadium at the US Open on Monday evening.
Sharapova and the Bryans were presented their rings in front of a full night session by Hall of Fame President Kim Clijsters. Custom made by Baron®, the Official Ring Provider of the ITHF, these rings are presented separate from the induction at a special event or location around the world. The rings commemorate Hall of Famers’ place amongst the sport’s greatest champions and contributors.
The Hall of Famers were joined on court by US Open Tournament Director Stacey Allaster, Hall of Fame CEO Dan Faber and USTA President and Chairman of the Board Brian Vahaly.
