Maria Sharapova Rocks!

I was glued to the TV for 2 hrs this morning watching the Australia Open "Glam Slam" aka the Ladies' Singles Championship Match between Maria Sharapova (Russia) and Ana Ivanovic (Serbia).

Maria displayed a stunning performance as she won two sets in a row and gained the championship title. After aching from Roger Federer's loss yesterday, I am glad that my female tennis idol won the well-deserved title. She was clearly the better player in the game today, being in full control of the match.

Maria Sharapova ROCKS!

P.S. I realised today that Maria is 1.8m tall (I always thought she was around 1.7m). Gasps.. Do you need this height to play tennis well?
