Five-time Grand Slam tournament winner Maria Sharapova shocked the world of tennis fans some twelve months ago by announcing quite surprisingly her retirement from professional tennis. In her career she won Wimbledon, the US Open, the Australian Open and two-tomes the French Open, to get the career Grand Slam.
She was involved in the Australian Open 2020 these days and she made public her real intention after the defeat against Donna Vekic.
Over the years, the Russian tennis player has had great success on the tour and is one of the ten players in history who have won all four Grand Slam events.
Since she left tennis, Sharapova has continued to train and perform physical activity not only in the form of exercises but also practicing yoga.
Although she is not competing the former number one in the world she continues to train to keep fit and to the delight of all her fans of her post almost daily on social media with which she keeps them updated.

During the Lockdown and also in this period in many countries of the world it was recommended to stay at home to avoid the promulgation of the well-known COVID-19 virus.
Also in this period Sharapova regularly performed her exercises and the Russian tennis player posted photos and a video where she practiced with a black bodysuit, a garment that, as she points out, she had not worn for a while.
The Russian champion also left a photo with a caption where she stated: “It’s been a few minutes (or years?) Since I wore a leotard for the last time. Anything you need to do to stay motivated even doing exercise from home.”
From the day of her retirement, the Russian tennis player has focused on her company, the well-known brand specializing in the production of sugar-rich foods Sugarpova and above all has announced the official engagement with the well-known British businessman Alexander Gilkes who gave her recently a $ 400,000 engagement ring.
Gilkes is close to the English royal family as he studied at the same university as Prince William and Harry.
