Li Na Of China Shocks Maria Sharapova She Wins The AEGON Birmingham Classic Tennis Event!

Li Na of China blasted Maria Sharapova of Russia 7-5 6-1 in straight sets today in the finals of  the Aegon tennis event in Birmingham England. I am a bit suprised at the result, because Sharapova played excellent tennis all week. Sharapova is a three time grand slam singles champion and I expected her to win the match.

However, Li Na upset Sharapova in the semifinals of the Aegon classic last year. Li Na has so much talent and I am very happy for her!

Li Na always had the potential to be a champion but she sometimes lacked the self confidence.  I think now since Li Na reached the semifinals of the Australian Open this year and entered the WTA top ten she believes in herself now. Well done Li Na!
