Andy Roddick and Maria Sharapova? No way!

#

From the 2005 ESPY website:

They would form one unbeatable doubles team, not to mention the type of photo-ready uber-couple that would drive the paparazzi into convulsions.

Andy Roddick and Maria Sharapova, the crown prince and current “It Girl” of the tennis world, formed an inseparable tandem the night before the 13th annual ESPY Awards.



After the party, the two retired to the Tropicana Bar at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel and were still lounging together poolside into the wee hours of the morning.




My personal take - both are doing it to get (even more) limelight. They both know that their fame and fortune is not going to last forever. Meanwhile if they can secure some deals on the side, they both can take it easy if they had to hang their rackets up.
