Girl of the Day - Maria Sharapova

UPDATE:   Sharapova made it to the semifinals today with an easy 6-1, 6-1 victory over Dominika Cibulkova from Slovakia.   The question arises... why are so many of the top women tennis players from Eastern Europe?   If it wasn't for Serena and Venus Williams, American tennis would be a wasteland.   The men's side is no better... Andy Roddick at 30 is still the highest ranked American at #10 in the world.   Where are the young American superstars that will bring tennis back in America?   Not playing tennis, that's for sure.
