Mario Sharapova crashed out of Wimbledon

Sharapova, French Open's champion, crashed out of Wimbledon after losing in straight sets to Sabine Lisicki. 

The result, although, came as a surprise to many, but the German is a tremendous competition on grass. After two sets 6-4 6-3, the Russian number one said goodbye to the third grand slam of the year. 

Sharapova found herself against the rope for most of the match. In the second set, she seemed to have given up when she went 4-1 down.

The World Number 1 then attempted a comeback but it was too little too late for last year runner up to turn the table around. 

Aside from avenging her defeat against Sharapova 12 months ago, Lisicki is in the chance to win her first Grand Slam title. On other surface, you do not know, but on grass she is arguably the top players in the world.
