The Curse of The Tuxedo - Maria Sharapova's Outfit Instigated Opponent, Led to Defeat (GALLERY) I beat Maria Sharapova because of her outfit, that is the statement which 154th-ranked Russian Alla Kudryavtseva gave after her upset 6-2, 6-4 win over the 3rd seeded Maria Sharapova. Man, it must have hurt! To put things in context, Sharapova hadnt lost so early in a Grand Slam since 2003, when she was 17 years old.
The 20 year-old Kudryavtseva candidly spoke of her dislike of Sharapovas fashion sensibility, Its very pleasant to beat Maria. I dont like her outfit. Can I put it this way? It was one of my motivations to beat her.
The outfit in question is a daring Tuxedo-inspired tennis outfit with shorts, that has set the sports and fashion blogs abuzz.
