Clip of the Week: Davenport Bagels Maria FLASHBACK!

While perusing my favorite tennis blogs the other day, I found this post on TennisPlanet. Completely random and totally off topic, I found the post rather intriguing.

Lindsay Davenport's smackdown of Maria Sharapova at Indian Wells 2005 was one for the ages. It was Sharapova's only double-bagel loss of her career.

The sheer similarity of the two baseliner's games was what stunned me most of the lopsided score. Both Davenport and Sharapova had their strokes honed by Robert Lansdorp, but on this day it was the American's driving balls that sent Sharapova packing.
