Maria Sharapova photoHappy birthday to cutie pie Maria Sharapova who turns 21 today. She was born April 19, 1987 in Nyagan, Siberia, Russia. Her current residence is Bradenton, Florida, USA.

What amazes me is that she turned pro on April 19, 2001. That means she was just 14. At age 14, I was nervous about going four miles away to High School. I can’t imagine what it would be like to be traveling all over the world as a tennis pro at that age.

Unfortunately, she will not be celebrating her birthday by winning another tournament. She lost in the Quarterfinals of the 2008 WTA Tour Family Circle Cup in a tough 3-setter, 5-7, 6-4, 1-6, to Serena Williams.

    [...] Patty was seeded 7th, and Elena was seeded 4th in this tournament. So I suppose the match went about the way it should have. Unfortunately that leaves only one of our featured cutie pies, Elena, left in the tournament. Cutie pie, Maria Sharapova also lost her Quarterfinal match. [...]
