Tennis star Maria Sharapova has officially announced her support as an ambassador for Sochi in the 2014 Winter Olympic bid.
Sharapova spent 5 years of her childhood in Sochi. During a press conference at Beverly Hills, she said…
“Sochi is an amazing city and I don’t think a lot of people realise it will be such an incredible experience.
“It’s a beautiful city and I’m so proud of it. I always tell my friends in America ‘I want to take you there, I want to show you where I grew up’.”
The winning city will be announced on July 4 in Guatemala.
