Sharapova admits grunting hurts her throat

Standaa

G.O.A.T.
MARIA SHARAPOVA has revealed her throat hurts because of her constant grunting on the tennis court.

Sharapova broke on to the scene when she was just 16 and claimed her first Wimbledon title at the age of 17.

But she revealed she has been dealing with the effects of her on-court shrieks since she was young.

She told Tennis World: "From all that grunting even my throat hurts.

"I have done that since I was a young girl and just kind of stayed with me.

"My throat hurts all the time after I play matches."

Sharapova has not played since losing to Serena Williams in the US Open in August and has switched her attention to her side business — a sweets company called 'Sugarpova'.

The Russian, 32, has revealed she has let out decibel-busting whines since she was young.

 
Whether this article is from some boulevard rag or not, I predicted long ago that she will be punished severely for her gamesmanship (yes, it was gamesmanship). It is easy to see it. The human body can only take so much.

:cool:

She really should retire already. She plays journeyman level tennis now and I'm sure she doesn't need anymore money. Would be interesting to know how many dollars of sponsor money she gets for each year she remains on tour. If it's $10mm or more I guess I can understand but if it's $3-4mm then after taxes I really don't see how it's going to make a difference to her life with all the money she made in the first 10 years of her career.

I wonder which part of Nadal's anatomy hurts after a match?

This explains her atrocious H2H against Serena.
Serena can grunt, shriek or squeal without affecting her throat.

Ofcourse it does.
She screams like someone is beating the crap out of her skin...

Noise and combat have always gone together, so grunting is just a contemporary version of an athropological given.
