She may have lost out on winning Wimbledon this year, but Maria Sharapova scored a grand-slam as she flaunted her stunning athletic figure on the beach on Sunday.
The 28-year-old Russian tennis star looked the epitome of a bikini-clad babe as she flaunted her trim and toned body in a dark maroon bathing suit whilst soaking up the sun on King Beach, St. Stephens Island, Montenegro.
Showcasing her bikini bod in the tiny two-piece, Maria flaunted her lithe legs and tennis-toned tummy as she relaxed on the famous beach and frolicked in the Adriatic sea.

Wearing a sun hat to protect her face from burning, the blonde bombshell made the most of her break from training, luxuriously reclining on a white towel in-between trips to cool off in the sea.
Making sure to avoid any unsightly tan lines on her bronzed body, the tennis star placed her faith in the clasp of her top, pulling down her shoulder straps to expose her shoulders and collar bones.

Stay stylish on the beach with a maroon bikini like Maria’s

Taking a well-deserved rest from the sports scene, Maria Sharapova hit the beach with a friend to indulge in some chill-out time. In the process, she pretty much lived out our collective fantasies about what we aspire to look like when we’re on holiday.
Her fuss-free attitude to seaside attire, namely some statement sunnies and a super chic bikini, were all she needed to cut a seriously stylish look. It’s obviously one of her favourite pieces of swimwear, because we spotted her wearing it last summer too.
To make looking this good on the beach a reality, why not follow in Maria’s stylish footsteps by picking a similar claret-esque shade from our edit below. The full-bodied red colour makes a change from traditional black, but is still really classic.
We love ASOS’s crochet style, which adds a bit of texture into the mix, but head to cult swimwear label Eres to invest in something you’ll return to year after year.
…NOW GET ONE LIKE IT
The tennis player – who is the current holder of the loudest grunt in the world of women’s tennis, at 101 decibels – looked to be enjoying her chance to relax in the sun, just a week after crashing out of the semi-finals at Wimbledon last weekend – when she was beaten by bitter rival, Serena Williams.
Reading a magazine and applying some all important sunscreen, it wasn’t long before the active sports star had to check-in with the outside world by checking her smart-phone.
Growing restless in the blazing heat, the naturally pale beauty took a paddle in the gently lapping waves of the sea.
Encouraged by her friends playful antics, the statuesque sports star – used to being photographed at matches and on endorsement shoots – took a turn behind the camera, and snapped some shots of her posing pal.

The businesswoman and candy entrepreneur made sure keep her bronzing body safe, applying sunscreen to her enviable body throughout her visit – whilst she also made sure to keep hydrated, with a stack of drinks occupying her beach-side table.
Taking to her Instagram the day before, Maria revealed that she was loving her spot of down-time to her 545,000 followers.
Posting a cheeky picture of her face scrunched up and half hidden, the tennis supremo simply wrote: ‘#Mood!!!’
While in another picture the trim and toned star was snapped smiling, as she enjoyed the last few rays of light at sunset on the beach.
But while Maria and her friend soaked up the rays, her tennis-pro boyfriend, Grigor Dimitrov, was nowhere to be seen.
And while the Russian star lost out to Serena in their latest showdown she seems to have won a personal war, bagging Grigor, who is rumoured to have been romantically involved with Serena, in 2013.
