Tennis sensation Maria Sharapova may not have claimed the Wimbledon title this year, but she turned heads with her impeccable physique on Sunday.
The 28-year-old Russian star radiated confidence in a sleek black bikini while basking in the sun on King Beach, St. Stephens Island, Montenegro.
Her athletic frame was on full display in the form-fitting two-piece, highlighting her sculpted legs and chiseled abs as she lounged on the renowned beach and dipped into the Adriatic Sea.
Sporting a sun hat to shield her face, the blonde powerhouse took a well-deserved break from her rigorous training, stretching out on a white towel between refreshing swims.
To ensure an even tan, Sharapova carefully adjusted her bikini straps, revealing her toned shoulders and collarbones. The low-cut bottoms accentuated her fit and firm figure as she strolled along the shoreline.
Ranked world number two, Sharapova relaxed alongside a friend, showcasing her strong thighs while lounging on a sunbed.
Known for her 101-decibel grunt on the court, the tennis icon seemed at ease just days after a tough Wimbledon semi-final loss to rival Serena Williams.
She kept busy flipping through a magazine, applying sunscreen, and checking her smartphone to stay connected.
Growing playful in the heat, Sharapova waded into the calm waves and even grabbed a camera to snap photos of her friend striking poses.
The entrepreneur, who runs a candy business, stayed diligent about sun protection, reapplying sunscreen and sipping drinks to stay hydrated.
On Instagram, she shared her relaxed vibe with her 545,000 followers, posting a playful, scrunched-face selfie captioned “#Mood!!!” and a glowing sunset shot.
While Sharapova enjoyed the beach with her friend, her boyfriend, tennis pro Grigor Dimitrov, was absent.
Despite her recent loss to Serena Williams, Sharapova’s personal life seems victorious, having started dating Dimitrov, once linked to Serena, in 2013.
The tennis star’s beach day was a perfect blend of relaxation and radiance.
