Maria Sharapova Opened up on Feud With Serena Williams

Sharapova was in New York last week when she witnessed the men’s singles final action between Daniil Medvedev and Novak Djokovic on Sunday. While she was expected to be one of the best-dressed celebrities at the Met Gala, the camaraderie she shared with Serena came out of nowhere.

For the unknown, the feud between these two stars started way back in 2004, when a young Maria denied the Wimbledon title to Serena Williams. Since that victory, the Russian managed to beat Serena only one more time over the past 17 years.

The Russian dedicated several pages to Serena Williams in her autobiography titled, ‘Unstoppable: My Life so far. Not to Serena due to her absolute dominance over Maria, but the Russian has always considered Serena as her biggest rival but couldn’t enjoy much success on-court.

In her book, Sharapova wrote about the 2004 Wimbledon final where she defeated the American to clinch her first-ever major title.

What I heard when I came into the locker room was Serena Williams bawling. Guttural sobs. I got out as quickly as I could, but she knew I was there. I think she hated me for seeing her at her lowest momentBut mostly I think she hated me for hearing her cry. She’s never forgiven me for it”, quotes from Sharapova’s book.

The duo went public several times regarding their rivalry and the equation they share. But, Serena and Sharapova are definitely in a better place in their lives, personally and professionally as well.

Even though the Russian bid goodbye to the game last year, she had different business ventures that keeps her busy. All in all, it was good to see two extremely dedicated tennis players, who shared a bitter relationship over the years, decided to bury their differences and be at peace with the company of each other.

H. Marko lashes out at Steiner: Defend Mick Schumacher

Helmut Marko believes Mick Schumacher deserves a return to Formula 1, naming two teams he thinks would consider the son of seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher. The 81-year-old Austrian lashes out at Guenther Steiner, who sacked the German at Haas F1 just under two years ago.

“Mick is one of the politest and nicest people in the whole paddock, which is a disadvantage for him. He also has the handicap of a big name,” Marko said in an interview with Sport1.de. “In sporting terms, he has already achieved a lot. He won the Formula 3 championship, he won the Formula 2 championship, that alone made him interesting for Formula 1 teams.”

Schumacher made his Formula 1 debut at Haas F1 in 2021. There, he lasted two seasons. After a disappointing season in 2022, Guenther Steiner showed him the door and they opted for more experience with Nico Hülkenberg and Kevin Magnussen.
Marko: ‘Netflix superstar’ Steiner treated Schumacher unfairly

“As far as we were concerned, there were no sporting reasons why we never got together,” Red Bull Racing’s team advisor explained. “He was a Ferrari junior at the time, but Mercedes took him into the team [afterwards]. So he wasn’t even on the market.”

“At Haas, he was not treated fairly by Netflix superstar Guenther Steiner. That’s a fact. Once you drive outside Formula 1, it becomes a difficult story. But behind the scenes, you only hear good things about him. Toto Wolff praises him to the skies. I think Alpine and Audi are seriously considering him. I wouldn’t begrudge him, because he deserves it,” Marko said.

It was a difficult race for the champion who went wide on the opening lap, and was forced to give the position back to Lando Norris after claiming P2.

Verstappen’s frustrations came to the fore as he attempted to overtake Hamilton, with the pair lucky to not be embroiled in more devastating contact.

In the end Hamilton claimed P3 and a podium in Hungary, with Verstappen languishing back in fifth.

“It’s going to be emotional for me” – Chase Briscoe on honoring Tony Stewart’s legacy

Chase Briscoe, in a recent media session, shared his emotions about racing on the oval at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Briscoe will be driving the No. 14 car, a number famously associated with his current team owner, Tony Stewart.

Stewart won several races and the 2011 championship with this car. He also co-owns NASCAR team Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR), which will be shutting down after this season.

NASCAR first raced at Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS) in 1994, which was the first race there besides the Indianapolis 500 in 1916. Since then, many different racing series have raced at IMS. As the NASCAR Cup Series returns to the Brickyard 400 after three years off, Chase Briscoe, who grew up in Mitchell, Indiana, faces an emotional weekend.

“It’s going to be emotional for me, I mean full transparency I cry every year just on the ride around deal so with it being on the oval and doing it in the 14 all that it’s going to be definitely, probably emotional,” said Briscoe.

“It’s really special to be back here at home in Indiana. Every race car driver dreams of racing at Indianapolis, but for me, it’s even more special because I grew up here,” he added.

Chase Briscoe eyes playoff spot and #14 legacy

A win this weekend will help Chase Briscoe secure a spot in the 2024 Cup playoffs. It would also be a fitting end to SHR’s legacy at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Briscoe has raced at the Brickyard before, twice in the Xfinity Series and won on the road course layout in 2020.

“I didn’t know if I’d ever get a chance to race on the oval. So being able to do it this year means a lot to me,” Briscoe stated.

The #14 car has a special place in NASCAR history. After Stewart retired in 2016, Clint Bowyer took over and won two races in 2018. Chase Briscoe then drove the #14 in 2021 and earned his first win in 2022. Other notable racers like Fonty Flock, Hershel McGriff, and A.J. Foyt, also drove this famed car.
