Tennis  star Maria Sharapova  has a lot going for her.  At only 18  years of  age she has become the  world's highest paid female athlete.   Born in  Nyagan, Russia, (in the  Siberian region) on April 19, 1987, she  began  playing tennis at a very  young age.  By the time she was nine  she had  moved to Bradenton,  Florida, (where she currently resides) to  train at  Nick Bollettieri's  Tennis Academy.  Aside from helping to hone   Sharapova's skills,  Bollettieri is also responsible for the success of   many other tennis  stars, such as Andre Agassi, Monica Seles, and Venus   and Serena Williams.

    Sharapova  began climbing the ranks in the World Tennis Association   (WTA),  earning her first tournament title in Japan in 2003.  Her   crowning  moment came in 2004, when she won Wimbledon at a mere 17 year   of age,  solidifying a consistent spot in the top five.  Off the court   she is  known for her looks.  She often takes modeling jobs and works on   her  endorsements, the likes of which include Motorola, Canon and Honda    Japan.  The attractive six-foot-tall blond often draws comparisons to    fellow Russian tennis-pro-turned-model Anna Kournikova, but her skills   on the court are what set the two apart.

In  just the past two years she has become the poster child for women's    tennis.  Billboards promoting the sport feature giant images of    Sharapova as "Maria Mania" sweeps the globe.  She has become the    top-draw in the sport, ushering in a new era of rising stars and helping    to broaden the field after years of Williams sisters' dominance.   2005   finds Sharapova on pace to take in over $20 million, most of  which  will  come from her endorsements--the most recent a three-year $6   million deal  with Colgate-Palmolive.  But it is tennis where her  focus  lies.  She  carries with her a streak of 17 straight wins on  grass  heading into  Wimbledon 2005, where she will defend her 2004   championship at the  prestigious event.
