Maria Sharapova Loses No. 1 Ranking!

Last Tuesday, Maria Sharapova played against fellow Russian Vera Zvonareva in the Pacific Life Open ... that match cost Maria her Top 1 ranking!
Maria played her best, but lost to Zvonareva 4-6, 7-5, 6-1 after she served 13 double faults & made 44 unforced errors!
Maris will be supplanted by Justine Henin on Monday when the rankings are updated. Although Henin was not at this tournament, she won two recent events in the Middle East.
Sharapova took her loss with pride & refused to make excuses for her loss. She said: "I'm not really angry. You know, I'm pretty cool about it."
