Sharapova chooses to cheat
Catching up on some old news…
Specific to Sharapova and the coaching, I think we need some context: This has been an ongoing issue since she’s been on Tour. We’ve written about it. She’s addressed it. She’s even been fined for it. I think part of why she’s gotten heat (deservedly, in my opinion) is that she and her camp have clearly made a conscious decision to flout the rules. SI
So why did the USTA back down in just getting this to stop (or ultimately deciding to ditch the no-coaching rule)?
