An advice of a good friend: 


Navratilova said. ___________________________________________________________________ She is right. And her coach had to realize it and react. But nothing happens. They let things flow but it flows in the wrong way. Maria is not good enough physically, she has not enough endurance, she has to get more skills, move better ( she is too lazy to move, she must get moved), avoid those DF and unforced errors and upgrade her net activity which is like non existent. A good coach had to realize this since a year ago, but nothing happened as we saw in all the tournaments she played. It's too bad that now she looses to everybody. ( not only to big ones ).


A loss in pro tennis, it is not only a game. A loss means that you are not strong enough to defeat your opponent and the level of your tennis should be reviewed. 


As Masha wants to increase the level of her tennis, she can also change her coach. 


A coach is a person who should help you to increase your tennis level quickly and you should not lose a match against a player who has a lower ranking. If it is the case it is better to change your coach, because we only live once on this earth and we don't have to wait years to have a good result. 


The coach is the person who should know your weak points and work with you on them and you should feel at each match that you are better. 


I advice Masha to try to work with a new European coach because nowadays the best tennis players of the planet have European coaches. It is the case of Nadal, Federer&Djokovic. 


Don't forget that we only live once on this earth and you are losing your young years. 


IT IS AN ADVICE FOR ROLAND GARROS AND THE OLYMPIC GAMES IN LONDON 2012 !!!!

It's not going to happen, Dartagnan. You don't change your coach like you would change your toothpaste. Be realistic. Well...yeah....what nationality is Thomas then? I thought he was Swiss?

It is not a problem of toothpaste. It is not a joke, It is a serious problem about Masha's tennis. With this level of tennis, she has no chance to win the Roland Garros trophy and a medal at the olympic games in London 2012 because there will always be a stronger tennis player than her. 


A real change is needed in her method of training. Her new coach should find the solution. 


Okay if his coach is a Swiss so he didn't find the solution for Masha. So he is not the right coach. 


Djokovic's coach found the solution for him. Everybody in the world sees the excellent results. It is the same for Azarenko. Everybody knows that Vika will be a tennis bomb very soon. 


For Masha it is not the case because her tennis level  is still unstable !!!

I think there's one thing you should understand about Maria. Michael Joyce had the problem and now Thomas has it. Maria's activities for sponsorship activities and photoshoots etc., take up so much valuable time away from the Courts that Thomas has already said that it is difficult to coordinate needed training with her. She is many times just not available to do the necessary training required. The problem, therefore, is not with the coach but with her, herself.

Sponsorship activities, photoshoots, fashion... all famous athletes in the world do these activities, it is not an excuse for Masha&her coach not to have good results.


Masha should understand that it is her last years, she won't have another chance in few years to win a Grand Slam because her tennis career will end for ever. 


You didn't convince me with this excuse. It is the job of the coach to improve the level of the player and motivate the player because when a player lost plenty of maches and finals, she discouraged. Masha was always ready to improve her level, she always repeats it to journalists. But the result is not good enough. 


It is better to have a good training than playing plenty of tournaments and losing them all.

Her coach is Swedish...

Maria has problems on many levels - her height, her lack of agility, her lack of net play (she should play doubles), her lack of variety in game (she either hits the ball hard or she hits it hard), her poor fitness (you often see her panting after rallies)...and so the list goes on. The clay court season is approaching and she still can't/refuses to slide.

Her defeats at Wimbledon and AO clearly showed her lack of speed and athleticism compared to the other girls.

It's a pity but that's the way it is.

Maybe you should look at things the way Maria does. She makes way more modeling than knocking a ball around.

She probably would have won. The Australia Open, but the other young lady was wearing something way more visual appealing.

It's like in 2010 when she won in Memphis. Had she not been sporting that purple bra under her outfit. Sofia would have won it.

Your right, Maria playing like a little girl... Baby steps an all or is that the cha cha cha in her walk?


 


Has Maria ever been on a skateboard ?   Preferably a long board, something where she could learn about something close to nature?   When your talking about sliding, etc....road rash and some gnarly stuff.   Which are what pads are all about.

I am happy that many fans recognize that the physical preparation of Maria Sharapova is not enough to win a Grand Slam or an Olympic medal. 


Masha should have a better physical preparation if she wants to win an important tournament. 


She needs to work also on her game, she should vary quickly her game according to the weak position of her opponent. 


Even a change of the coach should be planned. It is better to participate to one tournament and win it than plenty and losing them all. 


 


Dom 2, it is a russian movie about lovers. here is the website and biography of its actors.

Anyway the result is not clear, Masha's tennis is still unstable if you compare her to a strong tennis player such as Azarenka, Na Li and sometimes players who has a lower ranking than her and play well. 


Don't forget that we only live once on this earth and Masha is losing her young years. 


May be her coach or Masha but Someone has to move ass.   A new coach could also help her. 


According to recent Masha's results, I have a feeling that Masha can't win these tournaments: Roland Garros and London 2012;

If Masha can't change her coach, it is a pity because she really needs an efficient method of training concentrated on her weak points. Masha has several weak points that is why her tennis level is not the best one.  


Anyway the change of coach is always possible for Roland Garros and London 2012. 


It is better late than never.

______________________________________________________________________
Navratilova: Azarenka, Kvitova to be great rivals
AP - Sunday, February 12, 2012



PARIS (AP)—Martina Navratilova expects a compelling rivalry to develop between Australian Open champion Victoria Azarenka and Wimbledon winner Petra Kvitova.

Speaking ahead of an exhibition match at the Open GDF tournament in Paris on Sunday, Navratilova said Azarenka and Kvitova have all the right attributes.

“I think we definitely have the possibility of a great rivalry between Azarenka and Kvitova,” the tennis great said. “They are very talented players. They have really intense personalities. They’re very professional about how they go about it. If they stay healthy, that’s the rivalry to come.”

Navratilova was at the heart of the greatest rivalry in women’s tennis when she and Chris Evert split Grand Slam titles in the 1970s and 80s.

The 18-time Grand Slam champion cast doubts on Maria Sharapova’s capacity to keep up with Azarenka and Kvitova. Azarenka beat Sharapova in the Australian Open final last month to become the top-ranked player.

“I don’t know if she can be fit to compete with those two because they’re stronger physically,” Navratilova said.
___________________________________________________________________
She is right.
And her coach had to realize it and react.
But nothing happens.
They let things flow but it flows in the wrong way.

Maria is not good enough physically, she has not enough
endurance, she has to get more skills,
move better ( she is too lazy to move,
she must get moved), avoid those DF and unforced errors
and upgrade her net activity which is like non existent.
A good coach had to realize this since ayear ago,
but nothing happened as we saw in all the tournaments she played.
It's too bad that now she looses to everybody.
( not only to big ones ).

GREAT NEWS!!!


Navrativola is the person who always gave good advice to Masha. 


I am happy to hear from Navrativola that Masha needs a new coach with fresh ideas to increase her level. After a year Masha's results are not good enough because she has several weak points so a new coach will be a good idea.

I can tell that the ranking is not so important if you can't win a final of an important tournament. 


It is better to have a lower ranking and win a grand Slam that being number one and winning nothing important. 


For Roland Garros and London 2012, Masha really needs to increase strongly her level of tennis with the help of a new coach or victories won't happen.

Sorry for my words, i was very dissapointed. Please say what you want so shut down.


On paper she had won the Open in Suez already in my eyes. I saw her with raising arms holding the trophy up her head.


That moment of happiness would bring me also in ecstasy-feeling. Unfortunally i saw her losing.


What is it with her? New coach? I say Yes: Very Yes! One who is Loud and clear.


Maria Sweetheart: Play not for the money, play not for people, just play to kick that motherfucking opponent!

Guys, Gals, you're wasting your time arguing about wether she needs a new Coach or not. Just take a look at the newest News entry on the Homepage and you'll see why her Tennis is only so so. While all the other top names are showing thier skills in Doha and later this month in Dubai, where is Maria? Well, no time for Tennis, she's too busy visiting the Fashion Shows in New York this month. That just about says it all. I rest my case.


Oh, look at the pics..It looks like she left her push-ups in her tennis outfit again.
