So happy for Maria, never doubted her even after all the horrible losses. Was having the worst day ever today ( my dog died), and she managed to pretty much turn it round for me. Not to mention she finished just in time for me to go to work! Couldn't be more happy for her.

And just like him I am glad to see how Maria always works and doesn't "sit on her victories" (it's more or less a way of saying it in italian) but keeps looking ahead. I don't just love her, I have such a deep admiration and respect for her because of how strong she is...
This! Everything you said, you said it perfectly. And it's so true, about Maria as well as Rafa. I truly admire them both, they are amazing athletes, and along with Nole, my faves

It's been awhile since she did one of these types of shows. I think Cjelsea Lately was the last one, and that was GOAT.
I also really want to see her do an interview on Ellen.
I would love to see her on Ellen, her show is the most interesting one, and she is a genius. Imagine her and Maria together

I'd love her on Graham Norton for the comedy. Although I wouldn't mind her on Jonathan Ross, as he actually is an avid fan of tennis and would make a great interview as well as being funny (not sure if there's currently a season airing though). If she wins Wimbly she simply has to be on one of the UK shows, although with 3 weeks between Wimbly and OG she may well fly back to the states.

You guys notice that they also awarded Sharapova a special trophy for the career Grand Slam with a cross-section of the clay (like they gave Nadal when he passed Borg)? Awweeesssooommmeee...
Speaking of Florence, reminds me of Maria saying that she likes it/ is her current favourite song. I think it was in a pre-tournament interview before RG started.

That's why it's so perfect!

Yup. The first thing I remembered was Maria saying she likes the song when I seen your posts. And now was going through the videos thread and seen it posted there as well.
Re-watched the video now. Totally forgot about the product placement thing

I was pissed when she missed Miami especially to Radwanska but now I'm like well she picked up three clay court titles after that, so it's pretty impressive 6-0 clay court finals!!!
