Maria Sharapova, 6' 2"

[Lee]

Apparently, Maria hit another growth spurt recently (heard it from Tracy Austin tonight). She now stands 6 feet, 2 inches. Her presence on the field will be even more intimidating for the years to come

That's definately going to help her on the serves, it'll make it a lot easier for her to get them in. But, I wonder how she'll adjust to the new lengths of all her body parts. Most people get a bit clumsy.

As long as she stops growing now she''ll be fine!But she's only 18 so who knows...

Yer it sure will help her serve im 16 and in the last couple of months i have grew 2 inches to 6ft4 and it definatley helps your serve

If what I saw on The Tennis Channel is any indication, it seems she's doing everything professionally possible to increase her agility, growth spurt or not.

I met her at the Advanta Championships last November and it seemed to me, back then, that she was over 6' tall. In person, she is also far broader in the shoulders than she appears on television which is strange because usually tv makes one appear larger. She's a real amazon.

She's gonna have to say goodbye to a future acting career. I mean how are you gonna cast a 6'2" (or possibly 6'4") leading actress?

All right...who else just had a growth spurt?

I think it will be awkward at first and will need some getting used to in all parts. I don't see it as being noticeably detrimental though.

Kirilenko is so fine!
