Sharapova looks like she could dominate soon

Guest 15 March 2005 03:44:54
 The way Sharapova destroyed Safina in blistering 25-40 mph winds today
was very impressive. Safina has been playing pretty well leading into
Indian wells. she won a tournament a few weeks ago beating some good
players. but Maria made her look average today. if Maria can stay
healthy. and injury free for awhile. she just might dominate the wta
tour like Roger is doing on the atp. this girl is red hot right now. its
going to take a really good performance in a player to knock her out of
Indian wells.

I am still surprised from where does she gets the power. She looks very
slim and frail. She does not have any muscles either. Its amazing she
is continuing to owerpower much bulkier and muscular opponents.

 Maria's strength comes from good timing
hitting the ball. her speed is underrated.
but she really doesn't have to be too quick because of her long arm
reach. it also helps that she's a tall girl.

Are you sure you're not thinking of Hantuchova? (Rhetorical
question.) Sharapova doesn't look to me (in close- ups) like she's
been missing any meals, however willowy an appearance she gives on the
court.

Not much of a difference between them.

Hantuchova:

Height 5'11 1/4'' (1.81 m)
Weight 123 lbs. (56 kg)

Sharapova:

Height 6' (1.83 m)
Weight 130 lbs. (59 kg)

Sharapova is 3/4 inch taller. And weighs 3 more kg. Big deal! Both are
slim.

Look more closely. I don't think she looks frail at all. On the
contrary, seen from the back her shoulders are almost those of a
swimmer.

Why? Venus is pretty slim too for her height...and of course there's
Henin...

The secret to her power is that world-class grunt! :)­

 I think Sharapova is all about timing and technique.

This can't be right, I'm shorter than them and I weigh a lot more than
59 kilos, and before you say anything, I am a skinny guy.

Being a *guy*, skinny or not, makes a huge difference: larger bone
structure, denser body, usw.

My bones are far from large, most women have larger bones than mine.

men tend to have more muscle mass, which relates to the "denser body"
comment.

Unless you suffer from a severe hormonal disorder, and have allowed it to go
untreated, you probably just feel that way. In any case, Sharapova's
weight/height ratio *is* a bit low, especially for an athlete, but hardly
unheard-of.

It almost certainly *isn't* right. The WTA Media Guide is notoriously off
when it comes to the players' weights.

No matter when I tune in, I never seem to catch the official pre-match
weigh-ins. Do they wear clothes, or what?

Thank you for the Capriati vision I just had.

God, I need a drink.
