Hotel fires driver for secretly giving Sharapova a city tour
Posted by: Marco

Russian tennis player Maria Sharapova who participated in Istanbul Cup last week had taken a city tour with the driver assigned for her service, without the consent of organizers. When famous player wrote this on her internet diary, the driver got fired.

On her web diary, Sharapova wrote: "I am in Turkey....warm people and great food (very yummy)...two VERY important qualities. I haven't seen too much of the city but from what I have seen, it reminds me a bit of Russia. Still adjusting to the time change....sort of forgot what that feels like. I'm hoping I can visit their famous Grand Bazaar because I'm in search of their glass tulip tea cups, although I'm not sure how realistic that really is.

I went through one of those claustrophobic drive through car washes for the first time because there was no way I could spend another 20 minutes waiting around for a proper washing.....I was a bit disappointed because after it was watered and splashed with some disgusting looking rainbow wax, someone dried it by hand with a red towel, that left red looking dust all over it. Is it normal to need another car wash after just washing it?"

When she posted this on her website, tour organizers have found out about her secret city tour without informing officials. Sharapova's driver in Istanbul got fired.

That's so harsh, but I guess Maria should watch what she says. Otherwise more people wouldl get affected, no matter whenther she intends to or not.

Obvious that Maria has the same right to tour the city as any other visitor. Suspect officials were trying to communicate a more delicate point.

This is a storm in a glass of water, and directors from Istanbul cup cutted the head of driver, it´s not fair for a woman like Maria Sharapova must be so bore to be walking all the toime surrounded by bodyguards and paparazzis. I know what i´m talking about. Well done Maria and good luck for the coming Roland Garros.
