Maybe that explains the dodgy performance against Zakopalova!
Anyway - how much better can life get for Maria (and for her fans)? Another Grand Slam title, the career Slam, back to No. 1 in the rankings and now, flag bearer for Russia in the Olympics - all in the space of about 6 days!

That's great news I can't wait for the olympics to get started, not only tennis but also other sports

The no. 1 in the world, Maria Sharapova, comes back to Spain and Equelite
After the victories in Wimbledon (2004), US Open (2006) and the Australian open (2008), the Russian player had just one Grand Slam left, the French Open. with this victory, she gets her own Career Grand Slam, a collection of tournaments that really few players had got during their tennis life. Moreover, she had become, once more, the top 1 in the WTA ranking.

Maria, since she was very young and also during the last years, had been training at the Academy next to the team leaded by Antonio Martínez Cascales, Juan Carlos Ferrero's coach in Alicante and after her current triumphs, she decided to come back and rest to our Ferrero's Hotel in Bocairente and to her former residence, the Equelite Academy where we organized a dinner for her to celebrate her victory in Roland Garros and no. 1 in the world. We also met Juan Carlos Ferrero and Nicolás Almagro with us in the dinner. Both of them gave her a present to congratulate her because of her career Grand Slam.

Now, she is already flying to London to take part in the next Grand Slam of the season, Wimbledon.

Thanks for the news piece.

I guess we learn something new everyday. As much as I follow Maria, I'm not aware of her Spain connections.

The Russian Olympic committee chose me to be the flag bearer at this years Olympic opening ceremony. I am so honored, and especially excited as it will be my first Olympics in my career.
I have had to keep this hush hush for two weeks and keeping secrets is not my best quality!

Anyone going to the Opening Ceremony??

From Maria's facebook:

From Paris, to the candy factory that is producing Sugarpova in Murcia, Spain.
That's one of the flavors in the background...yuuummy! I needed to pump my stomach after that visit.

Sugarpova .

And everyone is mocking the final's US low ratings.

I wonder about sugarpova....has Maria found a way to make candy a healthy thing to eat? Or will she be adding a deluxe variation of junk food to...do the things junk food does to people?

Maybe it will be so fantastically good that people will stop eating so much other junk.
