Question

How did maria sharapova realise that excellence in tennis would come only at a price

Answer 1

It is a universal truth that "Success comes with a price tag.” Not only, Maria Sharapova, all who wish to achieve success in any filed have to pay a heavy price. So did Maria Sharapova. Maria paid the price in the form of loss of her mother’s love at the tender age of 10. Her father, Yuri took her to America for tennis training; unfortunately, her mother, Yelena had to stay back in Siberia because she was not issued visa. Even in America, she had to face lots of challenges. But Maria Sharapova paid the price and emerged as a tennis star when she won the Wimbledon women’s crown in 2004.
