I'm not a Sharapova fan, but obviously this is a tough spot for her - hopefully she'll heal up.
What really interests me is that where before I had thought her crappy serving of late was a mental issue, now it seems like it has been a physical issue. In a weird way that is good news - with good care & rest she can hopefully heal her shoulder, whereas a mental block for a particular stroke seems so much harder to get over.
