"Is her last name Jankovic?"

-Maria Sharapova incredulously expresses shock to a tournament official after Victoria Azarenka took her second injury time out at 2-1 in the third set of their second round match in Beijing.

Simultaneously dissing two top ten players. Not bad for a five-word sentence, eh?

Maria’s stock is rising in my book. That’s the kind of catty remark that reminds me of why I love the competition in the WTA so much.

You never really get stuff like this from Sharapova. Pretty killer remark, love it.

Love it. The more players speak out about ridiculous behavior, the less ridiculous behavior the players will exhibit.
