Bouchard rips Sharapova

**reedy** · 04-27-17, 05:25 PM

Genie should probably concentrate more on being better at tennis not talking shit.

**DR225** · 04-27-17, 05:38 PM

Pova will want to get revenge for these comments but I don't think Bouchard can make it far enough into the tournaments to face her.

Bang on

Bouchard also got another bagel in a recent 1st round WTA tournament, she just got one not long ago in an ITF event.

Seems like a harsh stance. Wonder if fellow players know more than we do.

I love it. Genie speaks her mind, she looked up to Pov growing up. Genie has her way about her and sticks to it, doesnt mince her words, I respect that, like how she dont shake hands before Fed Cup matches, but after like other matches.

**Snowball** · 04-27-17, 10:54 PM

Genie is a stupid little bitch.

Sharapova is a special situation
the meldonium was not even a banned substance, but Serena can take roids on injury breaks and lock herself in a panic room when the tester comes. pff.

Maria Sharapova declares she is 'above' Eugenie Bouchard's criticism of her return from drug ban

What is meldonium and why did Maria Sharapova take it?

https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/mar/08/meldonium-maria-sharapova-failed-drugs-test

Meldonium is also known as mildronate, it increases exercise capacity in athletes and the Olympic figure skater Ekaterina Bobrova admitted to testing positive to the drug on Monday

**Pinocchio** · 04-27-17, 11:27 PM

Special situation, my ass. Magnesium deficiency, ahahaha.

Not that it matters if Sharapova gets any wildcards. She could easily start from scratch, win a couple of ITF's and low tier WTA tourneys to get a decent ranking. She might even win those that she will be getting wildcards to, now that Serena won't be in them.

**maletaja** · 04-28-17, 03:43 AM

Actually i dont see wild card issues. Theretically she should play 3 qual rounds to get premier events and gather approximately 1000 points
And 1000points is enough to get premier events
Only thing is when she doesnt have rating is she able to play qual events? You should be top300 to get qual events?

**bruceBRUCEbruce** · 04-28-17, 09:03 AM

just shows what an empty-headed lil twit Genie really is

forget the argument about the drug and the specifics of the situation, she was suspended for 15 months & served her time
end of story
genie just seems jealous [sharapova had multiple GS wins at the age that genie's at now]

**gorwin068** · 05-07-17, 06:46 AM

Sharapova could have a chance to suck Bouchard's mouth in the next round if she could beat Lucic-Baroni today, although she is 1 set down now...

That would be interesting to watch lol...so I hope Sharapova can make a come back to win this match against Lucic-Baroni first

**gorwin068** · 05-07-17, 07:57 AM

Sharapova did make a comeback in the end...
so we will have a Sharapova vs Bouchard match in the next round then

Cant wait to see the cold icy stares from Pov and the coldness returned from Bouchie, no matter what happens will be fun to watch lol.

**Snowball** · 05-07-17, 07:46 PM

this will be fun.

May be Bouchard will have an excuse to play well for once.

she cannot serve let alone anything
maria cant handle, i considered over 18.5 but will just lay chalk on maria.

**GoBlue77** · 05-07-17, 10:33 PM

sharapova will smash genie. one pro versus one amateur

**jtoler** · 05-07-17, 10:56 PM

Ahh remember the days when one looked up to one's hero.

As fate would have it the young fawn would grow into a star and the two would reunite and become friends.

But love changes and good friends become strangers, its WAR!!!

**Plaza23** · 05-08-17, 12:02 AM

All in on Maria -700. She will destroy Genie.

This is a straight-set win for Shara, IMHO.

**Blackballer** · 05-08-17, 06:56 AM

could end in a catfight

**Blackballer** · 05-08-17, 06:59 AM

But seriously there is no value in this game, even Sharapova in straight sets is highly juiced. I think the handicap for Sharapova -5.5 is at around -130.

I agree.

-5.5 -135
-6 -115

(5dimes)

The way favs have been dropping in Madrid. F that.

Just want to see if there is a handshake at the end?

**jtoler** · 05-08-17, 09:23 AM

Yea Bouchie will shake her hand no doubt about that. She has her standards and set ways about her.

it's Maria who should not shake Genie's hand.

**Conqueror** · 05-08-17, 11:41 AM

Let's not take this too far. They'll definitely shake hands.

**gorwin068** · 05-08-17, 01:08 PM

Yes they surely will shake hands, because all people are looking at them lol

It would only make you look silly if you don't shake hands...
If no one is watching, they wouldn't even give a fxxk

Lol I was answering it as referring to Genie being upset because she's gonna lose, I agree on it should be Maria not shaking if anybody. She's shown class I guess throughout the comment, guess it'd be too tiring to respond to all and she knows she'd just be fanning the flames making it last that much longer. For all we know these two had a convo after that comment and put all things aside.

**jtoler** · 05-08-17, 01:55 PM

Let's go Genie!

**w@lt** · 05-08-17, 01:56 PM

I just started watching, but it looks like Genie is hitting well- maybe because the clay is giving her a little more time to line up her shots?

I thought the odds on Pova were pretty high considering she's only played a handful of matches after a year layoff.

Took Genie live @ +390. Just broke to serve for the 1st set as I'm typing. We'll see...

**Snowball** · 05-08-17, 01:56 PM

Sharapova rusty
16 unforced errors.

**w@lt** · 05-08-17, 02:01 PM

And of course she gets broken back.
