[split] From another board
Maria Sharapova talks about her new coaching relationship with Jimmy Connors.
“His philosophy is there’s no substitute for hard work,” Sharapova, the 2011 Western & Southern Open champion and No. 3 seed this year, said Monday. “He certainly emphasizes that in every single practice.
“At this stage of my career, no one’s going to come in and change something drastically. But his experience and work ethic are priceless. It’s been nice.”
At 26, with a career Grand Slam and more than $26 million in prize money on her resume, Sharapova wasn’t looking for someone to reinvent the wheel. She was more interested in situational help and motivation, she said, and flashed back to spending a few weeks working with Connors five years ago, when she was coached by Michael Joyce.
“He had a lot of great things to say,” Sharapova said. “A lot of it was from his experience and his knowledge. … I enjoyed the time and the work.”

I don't like what she has to say about why she brought him on board. Any good coach is going to have a great work ethic and expertise, but if you didn't bring him on board to tinker with your game and make some changes what does he add? Adding someone on to be a cheerleader is kind of a meh reason to hire someone. If you can't motivate yourself, there is a problem.
LOL :angel:
She's gonna have a bad attitude at the USO (tearing those early unseeded girls up, lol).
