Maria unveils new WTA Championships name








 

“I don’t have to follow any special diet or count calories. I try to eat healthily and before a match I load up on pasta and salads. But I pretty much do what I want.”

Russia's world number two Maria Sharapova will play Lindsay Davenport in an exhibition match in January in South Korea, an official at Seoul's tennis association said on Wednesday.
Sharapova, 19, will face American Davenport on Jan. 1 in the South Korean port city of Inchon, the official said by telephone.

Sharapova lost a previous exhibition match in Seoul in 2005 to American Venus Williams.

Next Tuesday, South Korea will also host an exhibition match between world number one Roger Federer of Switzerland and Spain's Rafael Nadal.

Hey Maria, Just so happens that I am going to S. Korea in Jan 07 and hope to see you play. This will be a big treat for me. Wish you a good vacation and rest up over the holidays. See you in Seoul. Love you much

Good luck, Maria, and love younloads as always. I've finally got my momentum to do things really well, in the absolute high standards yesterday, after see the verylast bit of the film GOAL. I will do my academic work and play in goal in the absolute high standards, and try to get Kathi. This is my ambitions that I am going to fulfil. Good luck to you always. Hopefully, when I type me messages to you in the coming year, I'll have my IP address in Oxford, Pembroke, the college I am aiming for. I'll get it done, to have high ambitions and do things well, as you have always been in the tennis field. You are my heroess.

Maria you are the princess of tennis, but to become a queen like Billie Jean King, Martina Navratilova or even Steffi Graf, you have to capture more slams. Foreget Anastasia being the last princess of Russia, it is you. T he Aussie open is yours if you want it.

by william on Nov 28 / 2006 / 11:36 AM |


it's so embarraing to us that maria sharapova was not able to play in olympic game 08 and US ope 08. hope she'll recover it to more grand slams....
