Maria Sharapova Says She Is Stubborn

Maria Sharapova might be labeled with many things: a Russian, a winner, a model.

But stubborn?

Was that the first word that popped into your mind the last time you saw her rip a backhand down the baseline accompanied with a high-decibel grunt?

Well, in a series of videos released by the Tennis Channel that helps you get to know your favorite tennis players better, Sharapova owns up to being just that.

In her words, Sharapova is “more stubborn than anyone can imagine me to be.”

There are also videos of Ana Ivanovic, Agnieszka Radwanska, Gael Monfils and Jo Wilfried-Tsonga.

Yeah, and Caroline Wozniacki loves to bake chocolate chip cookies. Oh, Rory. Come and get 'em.
