Maria Sharapova has announced her retirement

 

She is a great player, feel sad her career ended up as this way. Personally I would forgive her for the drama doping case.

The series of Rafael Nadal’s rituals

 

- Nadal takes a freezing cold shower, 45 minutes before the match.
- He wears both socks at the same height.
- He carries one racket onto the court, and five rackets in his bag.
- Takes off the jacket while jumping, facing the audience.
- He always places his bottles in the same exact position.
- Jumps at the net during the coin toss.
- Runs to the baseline for warmups
- He places his hair behind his ear and fiddles with his shorts or underwear before each serve.
- Crosses the sidelines with his right foot only and avoid stepping on it.
- Nadal uses a towel after every single point.
- He ensures his opponent crosses the net before he does during a changeover.
- He sips his energy drink and then his water, always in the same order.
