Maria Sharapova and Grigor Dimitrov had an intriguing encounter at the Kooyong Classic, where both were preparing for the Australian Open.
Maria Sharapova and Grigor Dimitrov had an intimate relationship from 2013 to 2015, but it ended. However, it seems that they still harbor no ill feelings towards each other, as evidenced by their recent meeting on Tuesday.
Specifically, Sharapova was in an SBS commentary group while Dimitrov took to the court. The Bulgarian tennis player noticed his ex-girlfriend and continuously directed his gaze towards the “Russian Doll.”
Faced with the gaze of her former flame, Sharapova appeared awkward, the 32-year-old tennis player said: “Stop looking.”
“He keeps looking over here, can you tell him not to look anymore?”
Grigor Dimitrov not only did not cease his gaze but also walked straight to the cabin and grabbed a pair of headphones to be able to hear what Sharapova was saying. The two had a short conversation quoted by Yahoo! Sports.
“What’s going on with these yellow things?” Sharapova asked Dimitrov about his shorts and then replied somewhat sarcastically when her ex asked if she liked them.
“I think you like the yellow on me but it’s okay. People change,” Dimitrov replied.
The interesting exchange was shared by SBS on their social media account and quickly received a lot of feedback from fans. The majority seemed delighted with Sharapova’s expression as well as the dialogue between the two.
In another development, the match between Maria Sharapova and Laura Siegemund in the Australian Open 2020 qualifying round was canceled in the second set due to unfavorable air conditions and temperatures. At that time, Sharapova was tied 5-5 in the first set, and the former world number one suffered a 6-7 (4-7) defeat.
