The Richmond Football Club sends its warmest congratulations to Australian women’s tennis star and passionate Tiger fan Ash Barty on her magnificent Grand Slam victory in the French Open tournament.

We, like the rest of Australia, are so proud of what Ash has achieved, and the classy manner in which she conducts herself at all times.

Ash is a great source of inspiration to us, and we’re delighted to have her as an enthusiastic member of the Tiger Army and the Club's inaugural Women's Football member.

May this be the first of many Grand Slam titles for Ash.
