SIZZLING SHARAPOVA ATTENDS MEMPHIS DRAW
After the failed Aussie Open 2010 campaign, Maria Sharapova is back on the courts and this time she is in Memphis. I am wondering if her self confidence is back up. Getting routed so early in Australia can’t be good for it. If she hasn’t lost any self confidence then hey, she might very well [...]

DEATH OF A DREAM: SHARAPOVA LOSES IN FIRST ROUND!
I was just reading the Tennis Fanhouse article by Greg Couch, a very good writer I must say, and he wrote that despite the 70 million dollar endorsement Sharapova recently signed she is still nothing more than a puppet in the hands of marketeers.
