"Maria Sharapova is in my book the best female tennis player in the world. I loved watching her play at Wimbledon. She looked like she had alot of fun playing at Wimbledon. And when she won, that was the best moment of my life when serena hit the ball into the net and Maria fell to the ground in excitement and then went to hug her dad. So this DVD will be awesome because you can relive one of the best moments of Maria's live and you can tell and show your kids this DVD and then they will show there kids and so on. All in all, I love Maria and she is going to be around for a very very long time.Love You Maria"

Long live Maria!

"Maria Sharapova is the best thing to hit tennis in years. In the early rounds of Wimbledon 2004, she was being compared to Anna Kournikova because of her physical beauty, but she's now gone where Anna never went by winning the big one, Wimbledon, at a mere 17 years old. (We all know Anna never won a tournament, but give her a bit of credit--she was ranked #6 in the world at one point.) Maria's powerful game, her passion for playing, and her refreshingly genuine personality make her a worthy champion and someone we look forward to watching climb the world rankings in the months and years to come."

Save your money

"Total ripoff. Less than an hour including extras, more shots of crowd members than players, and the boring voice-over frequently reminding us that this is the only tennis tournament that really matters doesn't help a whit. A truly pointless dvd with very little tennis. Summing up hundreds of matches in about 30 minutes of footage? You do the math.

Might be worth buying only if you were there and hope to see yourself in the many audience shots. Otherwise, with barely any tennis on the disc, what's the point? Pure fluff.

Go instead to the infinitely better Classic Matches at Wimbledon series; the Borg/Mac 1980 dvd has more quality in five minutes than this does in 55, and costs half as much.

Passola."

Too much irrelevant staff

"Not bad, but too much cheesy humor and a lot of talking. Very ltitle actual game."
