Airport Photo Shoot: Maria Sharapova is Dri-Fit Free

June 12, 2008 at 1:00 PM | by egw | 0 Comments

Tennis pro Maria Sharapova was snapped waiting for her luggage--a lot of it--at LAX last week. Her striped sweater and wide-leg jeans may not wick away moisture or help her whip around the court, but they sure keeps her warm on a cold flight.

Sharapova recently dropped to number two in the world tennis ratings after a fourth-round French Open loss, but the 21-year-old is still one of the highest paid female tennis players in the world--including an endorsement deal from Nike, makers of the Dri-Fit line. She hasn't left the top 10 since she landed there in 2004.

In a 2005 Travel + Leisure article, Sharapova said she never travels without "Kiehl's lip balm, Fresh moisturizer, my pink iPod mini and a good book."

Maria Sharapova and Andy Roddick Take a Break from Tennis at Bacara

Where: 8301 Hollister Ave. [map], Santa Barbara, CA, United States, 93117

How many lame jokes can we make about tennis matches or game, set, love in telling you about Maria Sharapova and Andy Roddick's lovers' getaway?  The king and queen of tennis took a break at the Bacara Resort outside of Santa Barbara, a beachfront property than earns highly varied reviews.  The concept is fantastic, but some visitors believe the service doesn't equal the rather high price tag.

Still, it's a popular resort of celebrities and other A-listers who want to spend all weekend in a caban or on a massage table (the spa is a centerpiece).  It's also a place for L.A. parents to send their kids, accompanied by nannies, of course.  We know of at least one industry dad who sent his two daughters there every weekend with their nanny, with wads of cash and instructions to give the little ladies whatever they desired.  The staff is made up primarily of UCSB students, and no Gaucho was shocked to hear that David Hasselfhoff "cut himself" "shaving" in a hotel recently.  The man has been tearing up Bacara suites for years, ravaging furniture and savaging the minibar.
