Tennis beauty Maria Sharapova has set pulses racing on Instagram after uploading a snap of her shimmering at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.
Fans branded the five-time Grand Slam winner “unstoppable” as she posed elegantly in a gorgeous plum floor-length dress, captioning the post: “Excited to be at Cannes Lions!! Join me this afternoon at the Sport Beach court at 1pm.”
“When she smiles she is unstoppable,” wrote one adoring follower, while a second said: “Hello beautiful lady! You look better now than ever. You carry a radiance that is attractive beyond words.”
“So beautiful, Maria,” added a third, while a fourth beamed: “Absolutely stunning. There’s no other word for you.”
Later that day, the 36-year-old uploaded a clip of herself getting a shoulder massage, prompting a similar wave of compliment lavishing.
“Tennis is not the same without you beautiful. I know you still got it Maria,” one fan commented.
Sharapova, who switched from blonde to brunette after retiring in 2020, was voted World’s Hottest Athlete four years running between 2003 and 2006, and was named one of the 50 most beautiful celebrities in the world by People magazine around the same time.
Is Maria Sharapova the sexiest tennis player of all time? Let us know what you think in the comments section below.
She burst onto the scene in 2004 after shocking the world by winning Wimbledon aged just 17, beating Serena Williams in the final in what was hailed as one of the most incredible upsets in sporting history at the time.
The Russian-born athlete went on to win four more majors and was ranked No. 1 in the world for a total of 21 weeks. She was the highest-paid female tennis player on the planet between 2006 and 2016, thanks primarily to a plethora of off-court endorsements.
According to Forbes, she raked in over $350 million (£275m) over the course of her 19-year career, with roughly $300m (£235m) of it earned off the court.
