Maria Sharapova

Amazingly, Maria Sharapova lost a total of just seven games en route to the fourth round of Wimbledon 2014.

On a rainy London Saturday, the fifth-seeded Sharapova took the roof-covered Centre Court and after trailing 3-1 against the 44th-ranked Alison Riske, the determined Russian won eleven straight games to storm to a 6-3 6-0 victory in the third round.

In the fourth round Sharapova will face her first seeded opponent of the tournament – either seed No.9 Angelique Kerber or seed No.24 Kirsten Flipkens. (photo: Jimmie48)
