WOWOWOW!!! Daddy knows best...and all of u guys (of course). I'm really impressed by so much

KNOWLEDGE & UNDERSTANDING of Masha's tennis. In fact, she should see and read this,

i'm sure she sends EUROPEAN Thomas back up North. Admiration i have for such expertise

i read above and so would Masha. Reminds me an old European sayin'..."The Best Fisherman

Always Stand On The Pier"...


If you don't believe in your Dad so I don't know who you can believe in. If it were not Sharapova's Dad initiative, Masha would have never been in the usa today. 


I just want to say to people who think that Masha is an adult and she doesn't need her Dad's advice anymore in sport and life that they are idiots. I say that they are idiots because Yuri Sharapov is the person who created Maria Sharapova and his advice&point of view are always important in Masha life. 


Remember that Masha has just started her life, she has a long way in front of her. 


It is the same with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, he was created by his Dad who had a great experience in life and music. Mozart had a super beginning and a bad end because he stopped listening his Dad's advice. 


Remember this practical advice: 


"The Best Fishman Never Stays on the Pier When There is a Storm"

                        The best Dad is the one who is always ready to help his daughter.

I agree with u, Dart, about the love between Masha and her family/the very important influence

on her career. I simply don't agree she has once again to change of the excellent team that surrounds

her. They brought her back from "nothing" to semi- & finals of GS and victories...IMO only an experienced

trainer could do that...and u would someone else? (good one about those "Fisherman"(LOL), but i don't see

a storm...in global politics yes, not in tennis:)

A change in the Masha team is not necessary if the success of Masha is very clear to everybody. A least Masha should win a Grand Slam or an Olympic medal if her team is excellent. If Masha can't win a Grand Slam or an Olympic Medal that will mean that her team is not strong enough. 


About the success of Masha, she was also very motivated that is why she increased her level of tennis; so it was not only her team who made her play a better tennis. But they had also an influence on her tennis which gave a new result. 


Unfortunatly Masha won any Grand Slams the last year. So her result is not Excellent but just Good. I give her a B+. I give a A+ to Azarenka & the Czech girl who won the two finals. 


I would like also Yuri Sharapov to participate more in Masha team and training. I would like Masha's team to take into account Yuri's advice for her preparation for important tournaments because Yuri is the one who followed all Masha's success. Yuri is also the one who knows Masha very well, he knows very well her tennis and attitude in real life. He knows her weak points and strong ones. I will conclude that Yuri is a very important person for the success of Masha. 


I mean the good relationship between Masha&Yuri will give Masha a chance to be a champion again because Yuri Sharapov is the best coach&adviser for Masha in the world.

I have watched the recent video of Masha at Indian Wells. Masha controlled all the balls&sets so her opponents looks like tennis beginners. 


Azarenka is still here, we will know if Masha has really increased her tennis level when she will play the match against Azarenka. 


Anyway there are still many matches before the match against Azarenka. So let's support Masha. 


Davai Masha!!!!! 


All fans support Masha

I think Masha couldn't even dream of such a "cakewalk"-draw. That u simply can't deny,

not for a woman who plays excellent tennis again. So, yes, there's the awaited duel with

Vika(if that virus doesn't come by that is). Why should she be afraid? Selfconfidence, a

good team...name it, she has it. And if that showdown comes along...may the best win...

Only the match of Masha against Azarenka will tell us the real level of tennis of Masha Sharapova. 


If Masha can't win Azarenka this time, It will be time to make a changement in team and method of work. 


Because Azarenka is not Kiri.  Victoria is the "Fire".

Yes.You are right Dartagnan. If maria couldn't win Azarenka this time she has to change her team because if she lose

that means Maria can't win any tournament in 2012 yet and it's too bad for Maria. But I hope maria beat

Azarenka.

Of course I am for the Victory of Masha Sharapova. I always support Masha Sharapova but I am not sure that Masha can defeat easily Azarenka because Victoria has increased her level of tennis. Few years ago Victoria was not a strong opponent but now she is a very strong tennis player. Victoria is following the steps of Djokovic because she is unbeatable. 


Maria Sharapova will have to surpass herself, she will have to run fast to catch each ball because each ball will be important for the Victory.  


This match won't be easy.

Dartagnan: If Masha Sharapova can't win any Grand Slams&any Medals. First she will have a bad ranking. Second I don't think that her team is so solid. It is just a normal team. 


The fact that Vika is strong, it is because she works more than Masha Sharapova on the court. The motivation is not enough to be a champion. You have to prouve that you are the best on the court. 


Vika is not the best of the world, she was not the best of the world before. She just worked more than Masha Sharapova and improved her level in tennis. Her coach helped her a lot to reach her goal. 


If Masha Sharapova loses the match against Vika, it will show us that Masha had a worse preparation than Vika. It is a fact. 


If you want to be a champion, you have to work more than others, during the training and on the court.

Today lose against Victoria Azarenka at Indian Wells is a very sad and bad news for us&Masha. 


But it is also a good news, it is a sign that Masha Sharapova should change her team to increase her tennis level. 


With this team she has no change to increase her level again so she won't win any grand slams and any medals. I am sure and certain.


Victoria Azarenko is not a super hero but she works harder& she knows exactly what to do so her team is stronger and better than Masha's team.  


Yuri Sharapov is still the best adviser for the choise of a new team. 


A marriage won't save Sharapova. The best athletes marry at the end of their sport careers. 


                                    MASHA


INDIAN WELLS, Calif. (AP) — Victoria Azarenka routed Maria Sharapova 6-2, 6-3 to win the BNP Paribas Open title on Sunday in the WTA Tour's first final between the No. 1 and No. 2 players since 2008.


Azarenka broke Sharapova six times in improving her record to 23-0 this year, the best start to a season since Martina Hingis went 37-0 to open 1997. The top-ranked Belarusian earned $1 million for her Tour-leading fourth title of the year.


It was a rematch of the Australian Open final, which Azarenka won 6-3, 6-0 in January to keep Sharapova from regaining the No. 1 ranking. This time, Sharapova was error-prone during the 1½-hour match on an unusually cold, windy day in the desert. The second-ranked Russian kept hitting close to the lines and missing.


No. 3 Roger Federer was set to play American John Isner in the men's final later.


Azarenka broke Sharapova in the final game, when the Russian double-faulted then shanked a forehand to set up Azarenka's first match point. She won after forcing Sharapova into a desperation defensive shot that sailed beyond the baseline. Azarenka dropped her racket, pumped her right arm and broke into a brief dance while smiling broadly.


It was yet another dominant performance by Azarenka, who improved to 5-3 against Sharapova, including 4-0 in finals. Sharapova hasn't beaten Azarenka in a completed match since 2009; she won last year in Rome when Azarenka retired in the second set with a right elbow injury.


Sharapova twice had aces to hold serve in the first set, but her groundstrokes were inconsistent. Azarenka led 4-1 in the second set when Sharapova won two straight games to get to 4-3, capped by a swinging forehand volley winner. But Sharapova won just two points in the final two games to fall to 13-3 on the year.

I always say that Yuri Sharapov is a good adviser but Novak Djokovic can also be a good adviser for Masha if Masha asks him about her trouble. He can for example help Masha to find a new coach because he is an old friend of Masha. 


Masha always do ads with him, she should talk to him, I am sure he will find the solution. 


He knows Masha tennis very well. He likes joking but he is also very serious in real life.

Today we will talk about tennis where the 2012 BNP Paribas Open champions were crowned on Sunday. I’m pleased to say that the decisive match in women’s draw was not held without Russia’s participation, as the triple Grand Slam winner Maria Sharapova reached the final stage of the tournament in Indian Wells.


But  unfortunately Russian super star failed to get revenge on her Australian Open offender losing yet another final to the unstoppable Belorussian player Viktoria Azarenka.


So Victoria Azarenka along with her Swiss counterpart Roger Federer both were unmatched at the BNP Paribas Open clinching victories in Indian Wells on Sunday.


They each won titles in straight sets enriching their pockets with $1 million prize money.


Federer defeated John Isner of the USA 7-6, 6-3 to earn his fourth title at Indian Wells, avenging a loss to the American who defeated him in a Davis Cup game.


And as I have already said Viktoria Azarenka easily outplayed her Russian archrival Maria Sharapova in two sets 6-2, 6-3. By the way this was the WTA first final between the No. 1 and No. 2 players since 2008.


Azarenka registered an unbelievable 23-0 win loss record this year, the best start to a season since Martina Hingis went 37-0 to open 1997. The top-seeded Belarusian grabbed the season’s fourth title and she remains the sole player who hasn’t suffered any defeat this year.


Since triumphing at the Australian Open in January of this year, Victoria Azarenka  proved that this tremendous success was not an accidental one as after that she won all of the matches she took part in during this season.


Sunday’s final featured a rematch of the Australian Open game as again it was Maria Sharapova who intended to break Azarenka’s victorious streak. But the world number one Viktoria Azarenka controlled every segment of the game and took an easy 6-2 6-3 victory leaving the Russian athlete without trophy for the second time in row. The Belorussian national prevailed in their last two meetings.


"She is one of the players who has always had extreme potential to win a grand slam and be No. 1 in the world," Sharapova told reporters after being broken six times by Azarenka in the final at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden.


"Many people expected that to happen sooner for her and were expecting her to get to a final of a grand slam earlier than she did."


Azarenka reached that first grand slam final in Melbourne in January and made the most of the opportunity by smashing Sharapova 6-3 6-0.


"She's going through a period in her career where she's extremely confident, extremely solid," said the former world number one Maria Sharapova. "Nothing is really going wrong for her. When you're against her, you're playing against a good player and you have to figure out how to beat them. It hasn't happened for me the last couple of times against her."


Sharapova cautioned, though, that much can be changed before the end of this year.


"There is no doubt she's the most dominant as far as this year goes ... just by the level of tennis and how she's been able to keep it as well," the 24-year-old said. "It's also another thing to maintain that level. We've got many more tournaments to go. Ultimately that is set at the end of the year and you kind of see who was where and who did how."


Azarenka, whose other titles this season were earned in Sydney and Doha, plans to withstand the pressure she faces as world number one and continue harvesting trophies at numerous tournaments


"I know it's never going be easy, so every match I take as important as any match, whether it's the final of Australian Open or the first round," Azarenka confessed.


So, this outcome can’t be called satisfactory for the triple Grand Slam title holder Maria Sharapova who cemented her 2nd place in the WTA rankings after the tournament in Indian Wells. Undoubtedly once being on top you’ll never be satisfied with second place. That’ why Maria Sharapova was so upset by her second loss to Azarenka.


But Maria is right, this is only the beginning if the season where three more Grand Slam tournaments will be held. And let’s not forget that the world’s top athletes will also battle for the Olympic crown in London. So hopefully Maria Sharapova will find the way to break Azarenka’s defense and to win the final game against her tenacious Belorussian opponent.


I would like to remind our listeners that former world number one Maria Sharapova has always wanted to win the Olympic tournament, but unfortunately she was forced to miss the 2008 Games in Beijing due to her shoulder injury. By the way the Beijing Olympics saw the dominance of the Russian tennis school, as all three steps of the podium were occupied by the Russia ladies Elena Dementyeva, Dinara Safina and Vera Zvonareva. Hopefully this outstanding result will be repeated in the capital of Great Britain this summer.

Hello! Dartagnan;


 


I don't think that Masha is in need to do call at the service of Novak for changing her Coach and I don't believe too that Masha is in need to change her Coach; that is not a question at this time.


Also, I think that Masha is a big international Star in Tennis and in Fashion and she don't need any one to find Coach for him since she can do it himself if she like that.


But, I think that Novac cans help Masha in her specific preparation, since she cans play against him some friendly Matchs before the Roland Garros GS and Olympic Games; that is what Masha needs really for recover all her natural reflexs. Finally, I hope that Masha will reach all her goals and have a Great Tournament and Big Success in Miami. Sincerely!

I mean if you want to play an excellent tennis you have to work with clever coaches or persons. 


Someone has to check your errors and help you to correct them that is why we need a good coach. The faster you correct your errors, the faster you play an better tennis.

Maria Grateful For Tough Love From Early Coaches


Each and every morning Nick Bollettieri is up at dawn to hit the courts at his legendary tennis academy in Bradenton, Florida. He has been doing this routine for over 30 years, and despite entering his eighth decade last year his passion for the game shows no sign of fading.


And why would it? To date, Bollettieri has played a role in the tennis education of eight Grand Slam champions and six players to have held the WTA's No.1 ranking, including Serena and Venus WilliamsMartina HingisMonica Seles and Maria Sharapova.


In fact, such is his success rate, that even after graduating tennis' equivalent to finishing school, some former students come back for more. Like Sharapova, who returned to her alma mater to add the final touches to preparation for the 2012 season.


Sharapova, whose professional relationship with Bollettieri goes back 15 years, believes her time under his tutelage laid crucial foundations for her career.


"The greatest thing I personally got out of the academy was the fact that there were so many kids and every single afternoon I knew I had a match to play," Sharapova said. "And no matter if they beat me easy or I beat them or they were older or younger, it was the greatest asset I could have.


"Because if you look at other academies, they're pretty small and more individual, but at the age of when I went there, that was the most critical thing for me. That's when I developed my skills of how to play a match and how to set up points and set up certain situations in a match."


However, Sharapova admits that while the academy may have provided her with many of the skills and experiences that have helped her win three majors and millions of dollars in prize money, it wasn't always easy, particularly under one of her earliest coaches, Robert Lansdorp.


"I just remember our first conversation," Sharapova said of her frosty first meeting with Lansdorp. "When I came on the court, he looked dead. He was motionless out there.

"I stepped on the service line to hit the first ball and he looked at me shaking his head and he's like, 'Oh, don't tell me you're one of those that warms up from the service line. Don't ever do that again on my court.'"


Yet Sharapova believes Lansdorp's tough love taught her valuable lessons on and off court, as well as toughening her up for life on tour.


"Besides all those [negative] things, I believed that he could help me, so I don't regret a minute of it. As tough as it was and as brutal as sometimes he was, he was probably the most honest guy in terms of just reality and being realistic about tennis and life. Maybe over the top, but that's where I hit just thousands of balls and that's where I learned how to hit my strokes."
