Maria Sharapova “I'm not the social type in the players' lounge” – Tennis News
World number two, Maria Sharapova, might be a bit louder than she should be at the courts but doesn’t speak a word after the match in finished. She bamboozled the 21-year-old Slovenian qualifier, Polona Hercog, in the third round
of the China Open on 4th of October; closing out the match in just an hour and 14 minutes with straight sets score line of 6-0, 6-2.
China Open was a tournament that featured both by men and women of world. So, the sports lounge hosts different type of players coming from all across the globe. It provided players to socialize and make new friends very easily,
especially igniting the opposite gender interactions. However, the 25-year-old Russian was least bothered about anyone in the lounge and took her way straight to the hotel rather spending some time socializing with fellow tennis stars.
In a post-match interview after her conquest over the 90th ranked Slovenian, Sharapova commented, “I'm not the social type in the players' lounge. I do my job and honestly sometimes I don't know whose playing and who's
not. The tournament for me is when I have an opponent to face; I get ready for that match and play.”
She further added, “After this I'll eat something and be back in my hotel, not knowing what's going on later today. I'll probably see the result of who my next opponent is. But as far as focusing on what's going on around and who's
talking with whom, I don't know.”
Sharapova was quite friendly before the break-up with Sasha Vujacic. She was even mocked by athletes as well especially the likes of the former world number one, Novak Djokovic, whose imitations of different players are a treat
to watch. She was even copied by another former world number one, Andy Roddick, who retired recently after the US Open Championship this season. She always welcomed such activities with positive responses but since her engagement tore, the Russian has become
a bit rigid in her approach and much louder than ever.
Everyone knows that it is a difficult time for someone so sweet like Sharapova. They were planning to get married by the end of the season but something happened abruptly that forced the couple to break up in silence. At the moment,
the former world number one from Russia is focused on her goals in the field of tennis but one can easily identify that the anger levels of Sharapova has definitely reached new levels. Let’s hope the beautiful blonde from Russian finds peace of heart soon.
