LONDON: Maria Sharapova blasted Serena Williams on Saturday for the American's controversial comments over a high-profile rape case and even criticised the Wimbledon champion's colourful private life.
In an astonishing attack on the world number one, which comes just two days before Wimbledon gets underway, Sharapova told Williams to keep her opinions to herself as the bitter relationship between the two was laid bare.

My impression of Serena’s comments is that she isn’t supporting the boys who did the deed, but criticizing the girl for having put herself in such a vulnerable position.
As harsh as it is, Serena is correct.
It must be ‘tough’ being female. Too many wanting to be like men.
I am now transfixed.
Sharapova is ruining the game with that preposterous little song she warbles every time she hits the ball.
My ad says “prostate cancer treatments.” =8-0
Even some of the men are warbling too.
1. She shouldn't have been drinking and putting herself in that position.
2. She shouldn't have been raped.
If she had adhered to the advice of statement #1, the criminal actions in statement #2 would probably not have happened.
absolutely she was out of line- and ger non apology later just further revealed her ugliness- good for maria for standign up to someone’s despicable comments
My impression is that...Serena is supporting 0dinga's "sons".
I hereby offer my services as mediator, and welcome both Serena and Maria to mediation to commence at the earliest mutual convenience, in my bedroom. I am non-judgmental.
With all due respect, Maria, Serena is entitled to her opinion and entitled to express it.
This is not your homeland Russia.
As a mater of fact, Maria, you just expressed an opinion and that's all that it is.
Now shut your pie hole and show us that you can win at Wimbledon against Serena.
And keep those annoying grunts you let out on every shot to yourself.
They may be the sound of music to your ears but not to mine.
“...keep those annoying grunts you let out on every shot to yourself.
They may be the sound of music to your ears but not to mine.”

Uncle Chip, I can envision a situation where the sound of Maria’s grunts would not annoy you but would be music to your ears.
She could double-fault me anytime!!!
Yeh but the closest you will ever get to that sound of music is envisioning.
Sharapova’s entire match routine is devoted to “watch me” “listen to me bellow” “let me delay play with my back to opponent” me, me, me. My husband and I argue every time she plays, he thinks she is fabulous, I think she is a head case.
Oh...never mind....caught up in the FR/Photo-response lexicon.
Williams made the comments because one of the rapists was black....if both rapists were white....Serena would say nothing
Surprised so many support Williams on this....she once threatened a judge during a Grand Slam match that she “gonna shove my racket up your ass”
The Williams sisters are ghetto thugs who can hit a tennis ball
Warbles? It sounds as though she is giving birth.
