Sharapova launchs her fragrance
Ah, the sweet smell of success: Maria Sharapova's Wimbledon title helped her land an endorsement deal for a perfume that will bear her name.
"This is a great opportunity for me to do something creative and fun," Sharapova said in a statement. "I love the world of fashion, and I'm looking forward to experiencing it firsthand." She agreed to a three-year contract worth nearly $5 million, an industry source told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Monday. The deal is the second one Sharapova has landed since becoming the third-youngest champion in Wimbledon's 127 years by upsetting Serena Williams in the final at the All England Club in July. The 17-year-old Russian earlier agreed to a three-year contract with Motorola worth between $4 million and $5 million. Sharapova is ninth in the WTA Tour rankings this week. |
