The most bitter cat fight in tennis: One's a human volcano, the other's an ice queen. And BOTH loved the same man. As they duel on Centre Court today, the venomous truthabout Serena and Sharapova

  • Williams and Sharapova face each other in a highly-charged semi-final
  • The American is the more physically powerful with a ferocious temper
  • But the Russian is richer - thanks to her sponsor-friendly image control
  • Deep rivalry was made more awkward by fact both loved Grigor Dimitrov
This is the greatest rivalry in women’s tennis — a feud which flows as powerfully off the court as on it. Bound at the top of the game by an obvious mutual antipathy are Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova, who face each other in a highly-charged semi-final at Wimbledon today.
Williams, 33, is the more physically powerful, with a ferocious temper and the mindset of a battling champion. However, she cannot compete with Sharapova’s media-friendly combination of blonde Siberian beauty and sponsor-friendly image control — which has meant Sharapova, 28, has waltzed away with a fortune of £125 million and counting.
Added to that, Sharapova’s boyfriend, Grigor Dimitrov, was once Serena’s lover. It’s an awkward situation given that the two women spend 20 weeks a year in close proximity on the tennis tour — all the while ignoring each other, or throwing out coded barbs. We put the queens of tennis head to head . . .
