I really don't "hate" Sharapova. I say this all the time and no one seems to hear it.

I find it hypocritical for her to be against on court coaching when the rule was put into effect because of the brown bottle and banana incident at the US Open that involved - Maria. There was a hue and cry not only from fans but from the press corps that questioned her unmercifully after the incident.

As has been said upthread the barbs in the article are directed at specific players. I don't need to go into who as the person who posted the information names names. I just don't see how a woman dressed like a "slut" in the women's lounge is distracting to other women. We women have an infinite capacity to ignore people or situations we don't like unless they somehow impact on us. I'm just sayin'.

You're acting as if others never had on court coaching. And making one big assumption that it's because of Maria that on court coaching started.

Really? I see one possible case of one of Maria's claims being towards a select player.

And your last statement is beyond comical. Your innate ability to ignore must not be effective all the time. How can you argue that Maria is not distracted by someone? How can you tell Maria who distracts her and who doesn't? You can't. Plain and simple.
