Jelena Jankovic and Maria Sharapova - 2 WTA stars at Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy March 4th 2009

i have one question a little wierd, why does she uses (as Agassi did) an elastic as anti-vibrations instead the usual little robbers?
And how does she ties it on the strings?
If possible please check that out if you can, thanks ;)

have you seen Maria around the courts the last few days?

... Jalena has such an incredible body... XD

I hope Maria comes back soon stronger than ever; WTA isn't the same without her. It's as if a whole entire franchise had left the scene when she got injured.

Yep she is going to play doubles at IW, her official site confirmed it :D

Good job for keeping us up to date on Maria's, thx!!

From an non-official news, Maria still feels a little bit tired when she uses her shoulder too much for which the doctor isn't sure her propriety of playing singles. Playing doubles is an pretty good appoach to transitioning from off-court to intense competition. Maria may well take chance to practicing volleys more.

Well she did practice her volleys, so maybe she was planning on doing this (the videos posted on this channel showed some volley drills) :)

maria not playing singles at IW but atleast she's playing the doubles,lets hope the matches are televised

Sharapova might have withdrawn from IW, but she's entered the doubles competition in IW partnering her friend Elena Vesnina (Russia)!!!

Let the comeback begin !!!

:D

Elena Vesnina is one of my fav' players as well ;) So go go go girls :D

Yea, it's so sad she withdrew Indian Wells, kinda easy field there for her. :(
Now I hope she plays Miami, she has a bit more time to practice.
