Sharapova, like Mauresmo, said she would forgo help from her coach this week unless she was "desperate."
"I don't support it. Our sport is an individual sport and you play by instinct," the No. 3-ranked Russian said. "That's what makes it so good, is that you're the one who has to decide what you're going to do. If you're calling your coach down, it's a little strange. It's like you're telling your opponent, 'I need some help."'
Does anyone else see the irony in these comments by Sharapova? This coming from a woman who needs to be told when to take a drink and when to eat a banana on court.
