Maria Sharapova Won Quotations

I won the first set, and I felt like for some reason, it was over,

Tennis has given me this wonderful life and I'm very grateful for it.

I felt I could break her any time. I know people are hungry to beat me after I won Wimbledon but I love beating them too.

I was in that period right after I won Wimbledon, ... The next four months, I felt like I had to win every match. It's a matter of telling yourself that it's impossible to win everything ? no matter what people say. You can't control people's actions. My big thing is to just keep working hard. Because one day, you're going to be on court and you'll win a match and realize that the hard work paid off. That's exactly what I did last year. I lost here and I worked my butt off.

But my most successful year was last year because I won my first grand slam at Wimbledon.

I always say that my most successful year is last year, no matter how much more success having been made in my career, because I won my first grand slam title at the age of 17-year-old that I could not have imagined and also because it (Wimbledon) is my favorite championship and I just cherish it very much, so to be No. 1 at 18-year-old is just to be consistent.

I focused in the third set and won it. Obviously I'll need to improve for my next rounds, but I'm pretty sure I'll get better.

I focused in the third set and won it. I'll need to play better than I played today.
