French Open champion Sharapova and Vujacic, who plays for the city’s Anadolu Efes club are reportedly due to marry outdoors in the city where Europe meets Asia. The pair have been together since 2009.

It’s been tough to actually work out a date for the pair of international sportsmen, with crowded tennis and basketball schedules responsible. The date has been changed several times due to timing but the way now seems clear to stage the ceremony.

World No. 3 Sharapova has been dreaming of a small and intimate wedding with only family and closest friends present.

I think it is a rumour that is doing its rounds. Someone started it and different media picks it up and prints it changing the wordings slightly. Maria herself has not confirmed it so I do not listen to rumours. Besides, she will be playing an exhibition match with Petra in Prague about a week before her wedding?? Doesn't she need to prepare and plan her big day?

Here are some quotes from Tarpischev's interview to "russian newspaper".

- When do you go to London?

- Part of the team leaves on 15th of July, others on 16. We will be training in Stoke Park. There are 6 courts, 2 of them with roof.

- When will Sharapova arrive?

- Maria will have shoot with Novak Djokovic in Stoke park on 21th July. Interesting thing, Novak will participate in our training process. But I think Masha will be training not only with Djokovic but with teammates.


Is there any info when will Maria go to London?

Hehehe, I would love to see how much will Maria indeed train with others. Higly doubt that most of the trainings will be with the team... Her standard team and her standard trainings will be the majority. IMO

Hmm she's closer now with a lot of the Russians but I don't think she will train much with them. Especially since its an individual tournament.

Correct, it is a rumour. The origin is Russian. It appeared at the beginning of the year first, but was so badly written, nobody believed it. Then a second version appeared during February, third in March. It was not known outside Russia until some small internet sites copied it and publish in English. From there it was printed again in Russian newspapers, but this time in more serious publications and the rounds began.
The current rumour wave began with a short article in London's Evening Standard few weeks ago.

Maria will be in Istanbul for the YEC - October 23-28, 2012. So she will be going to Turkey and Sasha is pretty much a bench warmer now and if he actually gets signed his team can lose him a few games to get married. And if Sasha is unemployed again, perhaps he can do all the wedding plans.

It still makes no sense. I'm 95% sure she's not getting married in November.

Can you all stop making assumptions? The article's origin is a tabloid. And a lot of the media picked it up, refreshed it and re-wrote it. Slovenian media, too... And Eurosport not to forget. But... Now.. We see her without the ring... Hmmm... Fishy, no? So let's wait after the Olympics, if she has anything to announce (a wedding, which I doubt, a breakup, which I suspect...), she is going to do it then or never... She can keep her mouth shut. It is her private life.
