Maria Sharapova

Maria Yuryevna Sharapova (Russian: Мари́я Ю́рьевна Шара́пова (help·info), Mariya Yur’evna Sharapova; born April 19, 1987) is a formerly World No. 1 Russian professional tennis player. She has won three Grand Slam singles titles. In 2004 at the age of 17, she won Wimbledon, defeating Serena Williams in the final.[2] She has since won the 2006 US Open, defeating Justine Henin in the final,[3] and the 2008 Australian Open, defeating Ana Ivanović in the final.[4] Sharapova has represented Russia in Fed Cup, although her appearances have been controversial.[5]
She has been featured in a number of modeling assignments, including a feature in Sports Illustrated. Sharapova was the most searched-for athlete on Yahoo! in both 2005 and 2008.[1][6][7] In July 2008, as a result of her success both on and off court, she was the world's highest-paid female athlete.[8]
Starting in 2007, Sharapova has been suffering from a right shoulder injury. She underwent surgery and as a result did not play a professional singles match from August 2008 to May 2009. Because of her inability to play because of injury, she was unable to defend her ranking points. As a result, she was ranked #102 on May 18, 2009. She is currently ranked World No. 73 as of June 8, 2009.

Playing style

Sharapova is a power baseliner, with power, depth, and angles on her forehand and backhand.[9] Instead of using a traditional volley or overhead smash, she often prefers to hit a powerful "swinging" volley when approaching the net or attacking lobs.[10] Sharapova is thought to have good speed around the court, especially considering her height.[9] At the beginning of 2008, some observers noted that Sharapova had developed her game, showing improved movement and footwork and the addition of a drop shot and sliced backhand to her repertoire of shots.[11][12] Sharapova is known for on-court "grunting",which reached a recorded 101 decibels during a match at Wimbledon in 2005.[13] Monica Seles suggested that grunting is involuntary and a part of tennis.[14] When questioned by the media, Sharapova urged the media to put down their notepads, pencils and grunt-o-meters and "just watch the match."[15]
