Reminds me of something Sharapova said: "I'm not the next anyone, I'm the first Maria Sharapova."

Although she played NAIA, she ended up quite successful at that. While the dream of becoming a world #1 wasn't in the cards, she got a college education and got to play four years of college tennis. Not bad, it certainly could have been worse! For the vast majority of athletes, 12 years old is simply too young to predict where they will be at 18 or 25. Physical development, introduction to the "real world," shifting priorities...so much goes on between 12 and 20. Anyway, a decade on, it seems that tennis didn't treat this girl too badly, at least in some ways.
What happened then..its 2018! Her athleticism was incredible for age then. Hope she makes it eventually, some players' careers dont really get going til they are in their mid 20's. All the best Maria.
Fast forward to 2020 and I read that highest rank to day is 993...

Broke her wrist twice, so it set her back
"I told my mom that I wanted to play tennis and wanna be number one and she said ok".. Yeah quiet easy..
She seems determined & very hard working. I'm glad she wants to be her own person. It's only good to be the next Maria if there isn't a next Serena in the playing circuit. Like Maria though, she'll have more endorsements because of her looks, than most her peers would. That's the reason Under Armor is already capitalizing on her looks, and not her personality like that sales lady in the video claims. She does have a great physique for her age, so I see a future Grand Slams contender here.

Nonsense. There are lots of WTA players hotter than Maria who don't get the endorsements. She gets the endorsements first and foremost because she's one of the best female players to ever play the game.
Impossible. Just one Sharapova in the world.

Someone commented she is nowhere at 17 and by this age Maria Sharapova had already won a slam. It's true but the days of teenagers winning Grand Slams are gone. Tennis is a much more competitive sport nowadays. Sharapova winning the US Open in 2006 was the last time a teen won a Grand Slam. Currently there are only 5 teens in the top 100 and they are all 19 years old. The best ranked is Russia's Daria Kasatkina at 25. The best ranked 17-year-old is USA's Catherine Bellis, ranked 120. Sharapova's precocity should not to be expected from anyone. Given that, one should always be cautious with these "future stars". Many great junior players were not great adult players and many great adult players were not great junior players.

Did you watch and really listen to what they and she said?... probably not cause you had your mind set up from the beginning. They said she's from Kazakhstan. That she's been compared to a young Sharapova for whom she has a lot of RESPECT but she needs to focus on herself to become a good player which is true. Or she should be focusing on other player? ?.. Of course you were more preoccupied on been judgemental. There's nothing wrong to have self confidence. As we can see, she's working hard for it and she deserves it. Good luck to this girl!

She's well spoken for such a youngster, seems ahead of her time.
+The Necrocast Musician I understand what you're saying about her not being succesful however you cant judge as yet because many tennis players mature at later ages. Just look at Stanislas Wawrinka. In addition to this she has suffered 2 wrist injuries in 2014 and has only just been making a comeback. I am not saying that she will be a good player however I think that it is too late to write her off just yet.
I love her hair!

to all vile, envious, ignorant miserable people who are attacking this young woman. FYI she came from a very poor family from Kazakhstan. her parents were making $600 a month. they flew to Bradonton and she was tested by Nick Bollittiery who saw a great talent in Maria and offered her full scholarship. at the age of 14 she was offered sponsorship from her country. unfortunately she was badly injured and got 2 wrist operations. after that she couldnt play for 2 years. end of story. stop badmouthing this poor girl!

LOL nice excuse. Anything to avoid the fact that you don't have talent, right? Francis Tiafoe is an 18 year old son of an immigrant. His dad worked as a janitor and he lived in a tiny studio with his dad and brother. He had less than you, but guess what? He's the next promising US tennis star. He's already a pro and famous players have already come out saying he is going to be the next star. Nadal invited him to be his training partner, that's how good he is. Stop making excuses. If you really had the drive you would be practicing tennis instead of bitching on the internet.
Nobody of international level heard of Raducanu and then came US Open. Pow ! Now the whole world know who Emma Raducanu is.

This is how crazy this actually is...if you had a single tennis coach that had players he coached that won 10 grand slams you would say...what a great coach!! But if he won 17 you would say this is one of the greatest tennis coaches of all time...ok...well NIck Bollettierri has coached and trained...and I mean trained players that have won 170 plus grand slams...greatest tennis coach in the history of the game forever...all time...case closed!!!
