SOMEONE ACTUALLY GOT PAID FOR THIS...

Those Sportsnet.ca blog writers are really on the ball... they've managed to age Maria Sharapova a couple extra years. Hey, it's a blog, right? It's just like e-mail! The rules of journalism, grammar and good writing don't apply.

"In 2006, the 22-year-old proved that she could be as successful on the court as she is front of the cameras, rising to No. 2 in the world rankings and collecting four other titles in addition to her dominant win over world No. 1 Justine Henin-Hardenne in the U.S. Open final in September.

"After she stunned the sports world with her victory over Serena Williams in the 2003 Wimbledon final as a 17-year-old, many wondered whether the Russian would maintain the desire and focus needed to win a second Grand Slam."


For the record, Sharapova is 19, she beat Williams at Wimbledon in 2004 and she's rather attractive for a six-foot blonde, but you knew that already.
