"It's amazing how sometimes everything comes together in your career" Maria Sharapova

Yes it is. Doesn't happen to everyone, but it certainly has for Maria Sharapova, interviewed here in the Evian lounge at Wimbledon 2012:

 

Sharapova talks about why all tennis players look forward to Wimbledon, as well as how she mentally prepares for matches and stays focused and energized.

Sara Errani, Keep it up girl!

Sara Errani's efforts got a little lost in Maria Sharapova's win Saturday. With Errani's rise through the Paris Open draws, however, Errani has taken the #10 spot in WTA world singles rankings. This fighter is bound to stick around.

Some of the bigger names she took down en route to the top include: Ana Ivanovic, Svetlana Kuznetsova, Angelique Kerber, and Samantha Stosur. She also WON the women's Paris Open doubles title with partner and fellow Italian, Roberta Vinci. Umm yea...take note of this one.

Errani first appeared on my radar back in 2009 at the then called Pilot Pen in New Haven, Conn. where I chatted with her as she was preparing to play. Since then her work has paid off. It doesn't always happen. I for one am impressed.

Here Errani wears Nike's summer baseline tank in magenta and the matching baseline skort. Powerful pretty.

 

 

Maria Sharapova, why? Color becomes you so...

I keep going back to this shot taken at the WTA Porshe Tennis Grand Prix in April. I love the beautiful power that comes with this outfit from Maria's personal Nike collection.

Why oh why has Maria selected tan and black for Paris this year when she has something like this in her closet?
