The 101.2 decibel screaming may help the Russian tennis player win Wimbledon 2005
Maria Sharapova, the winner of Wimbledon 2004, has won a victory today over her country-fellow, Nadezhda Petrova, in the struggle for the semifinal of the most prestigious tennis tournament at Wimbledon. In the final game Sharapova clipped the net on consecutive points - and won both. Bookmakers believe that the 18-year-old Russian tennis star has all chances to win Wimbledon 2005.
In an interview to Russian media Maria told she had a plan to take a rest in the company of her team on the threshold of the tennis match with Petrova. As one could see by the results of her match with Petrova, Sharapova had a good rest indeed. According to Maria, she tries to forget about tennis and relax at every weekend so that she could work herself out to the maximum on the court afterwards.
Maria Sharapova currently enjoys the reputation of the “screaming tennis player.” She disregarded a serious remark from a British referee, who threatened to disqualify the Russian girl for her deafening screams on the court.

President Putin congratulated Sharapova on her victory in the All England Tennis Club a year ago. Sharapova became the first Russian female tennis player, who managed to make such an accomplishment. Wimbledon became the starting point in Maria's sweeping career in tennis. Maria Sharapova can easily repeat her own success, leave her Belgian rival, Justine Henin-Hardenne, behind and win Wimbledon again.
