(VIDEO) Agent Max Eisenbud tries to convince Sharapova to return to tennis: "Maybe you should come back and try it again"

Max Eisenbud tried to convince the former world number one Russia’s Maria Sharapova to return to tennis.

The 36-year-old announced retirement from professional tennis in February 2020, bringing an end to a successful career.

In a video appeared on social media, a fan asked Sharapova that whether she missed competing on the court.

Before she could respond, Eisenbud, who was sitting next to her, stated that he missed watching her play and that maybe she should come back and try it again.

The Nyagan-born ended her illustrious career winning 36 titles in total, including five Grand Slams.

Her first victory in any of the major events came in 2004 at Wimbledon where she defeated the former world number one America’s Serena Williams in the final with a score of 6-1, 6-4.

Her last big title came in the year 2014 in the French Open when she got the better of the former world number one Romania’s Simona Halep with a score of 6-4, 6-7, 6-4. It was her second title at the Roland Garros.

Interestingly, despite winning just five major titles in her career, Sharapova completed the Career Grand Slam after winning all four big competitions, something a lot of big-name players failed to achieve the feat.

She won the Australian Open in 2008 after beating Serbia’s Ana Ivanovic in the final with a score of 7-5, 6-3 whereas she won the US Open in 2006 after defeating Belgium’s Justine Henin in the final with a score of 6-4, 6-4.
