Go Maria!

So last night I switched on the TV and found that Maria Sharapova was at quaterfinal match with Japanese female tennis player, Ai Sugiyama. Of course, because she was having my full support, Sapharova won the battles in 3 sets hehehe.. the score was 5-7, 7-5, 6-1. It was very hard for Sharapova to beat Sugiyama. Even her world ranking is at number 13 while Sugiyama is at 11 at the moment, that 2 points between their ranks doesn't mean is an easy job to handle. At some moments Sharapova were too fast or too weak to return the ball. But.. she won it anyway! She might meet Lindsay Davenport from USA. Davenport herself is in position number 5 in world ranking. I'm pretty sure Sharapova will find it hard to beat Davenport because Lindsay is far more experienced than her. But what I like from Maria is she always said that she won't give up. "I'm tough" she quoted it all the times. Go Maria!

Sharapova was born on 19 April 1987! Damn! People say that she looks more beautiful than Kournikova and would be a better tennis player than her. I'm agree with them hehehe... Oh, you can find some of her pictures on the net. :)
