| Maria Sharapova's Rogers Cup 3rd Round Interview |
 |
| August 20, 2009 |
|
| Question |
Is that the first time you've ever had a match postponed due to a tornado warning? |
| Maria Sharapova |
Probably. I've had a lot of rain delays in my career but probably not because of a tornado. But I guess the good thing about that is it kind of passes through, and once it's out of there, you can start playing. |
| Question |
What kind of things do you do during a delay like that to stay fresh while you're waiting to get on the court? |
| Maria Sharapova |
I was just with my team, just getting ready for the match. Nothing special. It's very boring. |

|
| Question |
Pretty sketchy? |
| Maria Sharapova |
Yeah. I'm actually having a competition with myself to see how many errors and double faults I can make and still win the match in two sets. It's pretty interesting. |
| Question |
Didn't you give her four in one game when she was at ad? I think she won all the points on double faults. Is that a first? |
| Maria Sharapova |
Probably not. |

| Maria Sharapova's Rogers Cup 1st Round Interview |
 |
| August 17, 2009 |
|
| Question |
You said on Friday I think you anticipated a good welcome from a lot of the Russian-speaking people. You seem to have gotten that tonight. Can you comment on that? |
| Maria Sharapova |
Yeah, I did. I saw a few Russian flags waving around, especially when I was finished with the match. I try to stay focused on my job when I'm playing the match, but I definitely heard them a little bit and I saw the Russian flags, so I knew they were there supporting me. That was great. |
| Question |
And your opponent, too? |
| Maria Sharapova |
Yeah, absolutely. When you're out there, you forget who you're playing, your compatriot or if you're playing somebody from another country. Yeah, it's all about the job ahead and your own side of the court and trying to win the match. |

| Maria Sharapova's Interview before Standford Tournament |
 |
| July 24, 2009 |
|
| Question |
If you would like to start with any opening comments, then we'll open it up for questions. |
| Maria Sharapova |
Questions are great. |
| Question |
How would you say your return from injury is going? |
| Maria Sharapova |
It's been wonderful. I went to Europe. I was there for seven weeks, then didn't have to come back earlier than planned. You know, I obviously was a little bit disappointed with Wimbledon. It was a tough match. With the way my arm held up, I was really happy.
You know, I came back. I went to work. I went back on the court, started working. |

|
| Question |
What are your thoughts? |
| Maria Sharapova |
Uhm, no real thoughts. I lost the match (smiling). |
| Question |
Do you, yourself, understand what happened this afternoon? |
| Maria Sharapova |
Uhm, yes. I mean, if I'm smart enough, I should know. It took me a while to get going. It's a little too late to start picking yourself up when you're down a set and 3-0. You know, it's a little late. |
