article for indore plus.. Sania Mirza.. can't they come up with anything else???

Tennis is famous for major upsets every single time. It is ubiquitous that an unseeded, unknown player would storm his/her way through an international tournament and leave everyone gaping. And it is equally common that every champion struggles to keep his title for long and has to give in to young blood equally fast. What happened to Maria Sharapova against Ana Ivanovic at the French Open recently is proof enough.In this game of underdogs, it is very important to be at the right place at the right time. Everyone cannot be FEDEX. Some players, although very talented never really make it just because they aren’t lucky enough. Has luck not favoured Sania Mirza? One can’t really say. There has been no dearth of resources. Yes, she does not have an athletic body that is essential for a tennis player. Experts say that’s a major drawback. But over the years she has proved to be a sturdy player. Her rapid rise through the World rankings awed India since never had a girl achieved this feat. I remember reading an interview where Mahesh Bhupathi was with a 16 year old Sania. He said, "Watch out for her. She is going to be in the World top 50 soon." And it turned out to be so true. But alas, she could never manage to go any further. Some have already written her off, saying that her prime is past. But leaving all this aside, is Sania really ignoring her game because of her endorsements? I don't think so. She has been one of the most consistent players the game has seen and her dedication is more than obvious. Had she really been interested in cashing in on her brand value, she would've probably ended making more money than Anna Kournikova. Who knows, she would've easily starred in a movie too!!What is wrong in endorsements anyway? As Sania was rising in rank with every match she played, it was the media that created so much hype around her. It is not her fault that India is expecting so much from her and any criticism her way in is totally unacceptable.All we can hope for is that this underdog one day causes many upsets and creates history
