Tennis player Asia Muhammad made her professional debut at the 2008 U.S. Open and she did it with a bit of personalized flair: she played her matches with a diamond-encrusted tennis racket.

The sparkling racket, created by jeweler Michael E. Minden, featured her first name initial in 0.50 carats of diamonds on the handle. How much to get one of your own? Well you have to supply your own racket (or other sports equipment) and then it's just $1,750 for one initial or $3,400 for both.
