Moscow: Maria Sharapova has refused to feel sorry for herself during her doping ban, occupying her time by studying at Harvard, writing a book and even learning how to box.
The former World No. 1 and five-time Grand Slam title winner told a Russian chat show that she particularly enjoyed lacing up a pair of boxing gloves as part of her fitness regime.
&ldquo;I tried boxing as I needed to keep myself in good form. It was great as I could imagine some particular people whom I wanted to hit,&rdquo; said the 29-year-old, who will return to action at the Stuttgart claycourt tournament on April 26, seven days after her 30th birthday.
&ldquo;I found out that I'm very good in resting,&rdquo; added Sharapova when she was asked what lessons she had learned during her enforced absence from the tour and which has left her now without a world ranking.
&ldquo;I also had a vacation in Croatia, I celebrated the New Year in Hawaii. I've never been in London as a tourist before. I've seen almost nothing there while playing at Wimbledon.&rdquo; Sharapova, who has studied at Harvard Business School, is also involved in a book about her life.
