Michael* Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 Damn those who choose the photos for the magazine, these captures I feel are much more original... Definitely agree that the caps are better than the editorial. Less affected by overly exuberant Photoshopping too, which is another plus. Quote

Nightlife Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 Sharapova digs in to see off Lisicki Maria Sharapova powered into the quarter-finals of the Madrid Open with a battling victory over Sabine Lisicki on Thursday, and she was later joined by Serena Williams. Sharapova is building up towards the defence of her French Open crown and she has looked good in Madrid this week. She followed up her wins over Alexandra Dulgheru and Christina McHale by digging in to see off Lisicki 6-2 7-5. The world No. 2 Sharapova asserted her authority with a break of serve in the opening game and a punishing backhand handed her a double break. Lisicki steeled herself to break back but she was unable to hold her serve. A double fault coughed up two more break points and she threw a backhand way over the baseline. For all her problems on serve, Lisicki was confident from the back of the court and she broke for a second time in the set, aided by a stunning drop shot that gave Sharapova no play. The drop shot then put Lisicki on the back foot at the start of the seventh game as a mistimed effort was punished by Sharapova who promptly broke again and then held serve to close out the set. Lisicki held for first time in match at start of the second, closing out the game with a crisp ace. The German put herself in the driving seat in the set when breaking the Sharapova serve for a 3-1 lead but she overdid the drop shot in the following game and Sharapova feasted on the short balls to break back. Sharapova shook off a couple of break points to hold in the eighth game, sticking to her plan of serving to the Lisicki forehand, and saved set points in the 10th. Lisicki was made to rue not taking her chances as Sharapova took a marathon 11th game and closed out the match on her own serve. Serena Williams was next on Manolo Santana to play Sharapova's compatriot Maria Kirilenko, currently ranked 12th in the world. The American had not looked entirely comfortable on clay this week, but she advanced impressively 6-3 6-1 to reach the last-eight. The match stayed on serve for the first six games of the opening set, at which point Williams converted her first break chance to lead 4-3. Dropping only two of 18 points on serve in the set, she then comfortably saw things out with a further break to take control. Kirilenko's serve began to fall apart and she fell 4-0 behind at the start of the second, representing four consecutive breaks for Williams. In the end, victory was wrapped up in 64 minutes. Quote

Nightlife Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Maria Sharapova sends note to paparazzi after win Earlier this week, the worst-kept secret in tennis was confirmed when European paparazzi snapped pictures of Maria Sharapova“snuggling” through the streets of Madrid with her boyfriend, 21-year-old Grigor Dimitrov. The photos were taken one day after Dimitrov upset world No. 1 Novak Djokovic. Previously, the coupling of the Russian tennis star and the Bulgarian up-and-comer had existed only in rumor, innuendo, blushing denials and cryptic messages during interviews. The pictures made it officially official. So how did Sharapova react when the cat was finally let out of the bag? With a smile and good humor, courtesy a delightful message written on a camera after her quarterfinal win in Madrid. “How did you catch us??” she wrote with a smile. I don’t know, but traipsing cheek-to-cheek through the streets of a major European city that happens to be hosting a dual-tour tennis tournament couldn’t have helped. Quote
Nightlife Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 A few other shots regarding my previous post Love it!! Quote

Being at least eight inches taller than everyone else on said streets couldn't have helped either. Quote
Nightlife Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 ^ Yeah exactly.. Although saying that Sasha Vujačić was 6.5ft. She really should have stayed with him purely based on the height advantage he had on her Maria Sharapova vs Kaia Kanepi Madrid 2013 Quarter Final Highlights Quote
Undo It Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Classy of Maria to handle the situation like this. I can think of a few others that would have not been so gracious. How tall is he anyway? No matter, with the growing number of couples out there that the woman is taller, I think the whole guy being taller thing has become passe. Quote
