Great events in Tennis, and Hollywood Marriage!

On June 9, 2012, History in Women's Tennis was made. Maria Sharapova became the 10th woman to win the Career Grand Slam. Maria won the 2012 French Open Final over Sara Errani. Maria won in 2 sets by the score of 6-3, 6-2. Maria had five breaks of serve to Sara's two breaks of serve. Maria won the first four games of the first set, and she served out the set at 6-3. In the second set, Maria broke Sara three more times and it was the difference maker. Maria served out the match when she lead 5-2. The final game was extended to more than one deuce, as Errani hit a couple of drop shots which irritated Maria. In the end, Maria hit an ace and Errani hit a drop shot into the net on match point. Maria won $1.56 million as prize money for being the 2012 French Open champion. Sharapova is the new No. 1, and Errani moves into the top 10 with her appearance in the French Open final. In other news, Matthew McConaughey married Camila Alves in Austin, TX on June 9, 2012. After being together for the past 6 years, the happy couple tied the knot. It was a small ceremony, and it was a bit of a surprise for some guests. Matt and Camila have 2 kids together, and let's hope they spend the rest of their lives together in marital bliss. Congrats to Matt, and a huge congrats to Maria Sharapova also. Both events made RSG happy!
