Grand slam winner, Maria Sharapova has released a memoir titled Unstoppable: My Life so far. From the excerpts released, via Daily Mail it appears Sharapova was more concerned with G.O.A.T Serena Williams life than hers- or her doping issues.
Take a look:
“I don’t think she’s ever forgiven me for it’ – witnessing this ‘low and vulnerable moment. I think Serena hated me for being the skinny kid who beat her, against all odds, at Wimbledon. I think she hated me for taking something that she believed belonged to her. I think she hated me for seeing her at her lowest moment. But mostly I think she hated me for hearing her cry. She’s never forgiven me for it.”
Describing Serena, Sharapova says:
“First of all her physical presence is much stronger and bigger than you realize watching TV. She has thick arms and thick legs and is so intimidating and strong. It’s the whole thing – her presence, her confidence, her personality. Even now, she can make me feel like a little girl.”
Ira Madison has already dismissed Sharapova’s claims as nonsense. Twitter has taken it further. Step by step, they break down why Sharapova’s book is nothing but racism on, yes, steroids…something Sharapova is quite familiar with, even though she still lost to Serena again and again.

Let the record reflect that Maria Sharapova didn't even make it out of the round of sixteen while Serena is on maternity leave.

Sharapova built a whole career that hinged on her supposed rivalry with Serena despite the fact that she's universally mediocre.

Maria Sharapova doped up for ten years to lose 18 times to Serena so she could write a book blaming it on Serena's thick arms & legs. pic.twitter.com/CZvURt9hDG

Lets be real, Maria Sharapova looks at Serena the same way Trump looks at Obama; intimidated by greatness they got Russians to help em cheat

They are peers, but not equals and every time Serena beats her ass and glows in the victory Sharapova ascends to another level of hateration

They act as if Martina Navratilova wasn't similarly built…

This whole thread. Sharapova is pulling every trick in the "I'm a delicate white woman" book & it is annoying & trifling as hell. https://t.co/KtC7Y1vLXs
