You know, that Andy Roddick and Maria Sharapova, they were the talk of the town back in the day. Big tennis stars, both of ’em. Folks always want to know who is dating who, right? Well, let me tell you what I heard about these two. This Andy Roddick, he was a big shot, a real good tennis player, from America. And Maria Sharapova, she was something else, all the way from Russia, hitting that ball like nobody’s business.
They say they met back at the US Open, I think it was 2003. Lots of folks were saying they were more than just friends, you know? Playing tennis and getting all close, it gets people talking. I heard Maria even wore a shirt once, it said somethin’ about love being in the air. Now, that gets the tongues wagging, don’t it?
But then Andy, he came right out and said they weren’t a couple. Said they were just friends. Said it loud and clear so everyone could hear. I guess they were good friends. Play tennis together, maybe eat together, who knows. But he married another pretty girl, Brooklyn Decker, I think her name is. They got two little ones now, running around, I bet. Time sure does fly, doesn’t it?
This Maria, she was always in the newspapers. Winning all them big tennis matches. They call it Grand Slam, or something like that. She won a whole bunch of them. She even got a medal at the Olympics. That’s a big deal, you know. Not everyone can do that. It takes a lot of hard work, hitting that ball day in and day out. She was good, real good.
I heard she stopped playing tennis a few years back. 2020, I think it was. Said she was gonna do other things. She’s got some kind of foundation, helping folks, I reckon. Works with some big companies, too. And she’s got a little boy now. Keeps her busy, I’m sure. Kids always do.
- Maria Sharapova, she was a big tennis star.
- Andy Roddick, he was a big tennis star too.
- People thought they were dating, but they said no.
- Maria won a lot of big games.
- Andy got married to someone else.
Now, I heard about another fella she’s with now. Alexander somethin’. They started going around together in 2018, I think it was. He ain’t a tennis player, though. Different world, I guess. But she seems happy. That’s all that matters, right? Being happy.
You know, back then, everyone was watching them at the US Open. Big crowds, lots of excitement. I remember hearing about it on the radio. They said Andy wasn’t too happy one time, even though he won his match. It was his birthday, too. 24 years old. Young fella.
Andy and Maria, they were big news. I remember once there was some rain at the US Open, and they had to do something to keep the folks entertained. It’s a big show, you know. Lots of money and all that.
People say Andy and Maria were good friends for a long time. They played doubles, I heard. That means they were on the same team. That takes some doing, getting along like that. You gotta trust your partner.
They are good friends, that Maria and Andy. But that’s about it. He was not her boyfriend. That’s the truth, least that’s what I heard. There were always these stories about them, you know? People like to talk. Especially when you’re famous. Like those two. They were real famous. Everyone knew their names. They were all over the TV and in the newspapers. But they were just friends, playing tennis. That’s all.
She was with some other fellas. But Andy was not one of them. Like that fella from before, the one she is with right now. Alexander, I think his name is. It is hard to keep up with all that stuff.
I remember when they played at the US Open, years ago. There was always lots of people there, watching them. They were good, both of them. Andy Roddick and Maria Sharapova. Big names. Big stars. But only friends.
