Russian tennis ace Maria Sharapova has never been the type to look back on her accomplishments. Joining the International Tennis Hall of Fame has given her a chance to do just that.

“Wow, there was a lot of sacrifice. There was a lot of hard work, and boy was it worth it,” she said on Friday, a day before she was to be enshrined along with the dominating doubles brothers, Bob and Mike Bryan.

Sharapova, a former World No.1 won five Grand Slam titles during a career that spanned over a decade.
