Maria Sharapova granted wild-card entry
Maria Sharapova is among eight women who were given entry into the 128-player
Abu Dhabi - Emirates Voice
Maria Sharapova has been granted a wild-card invitation for the US Open's main draw.
Sharapova is among eight women who were given entry into the 128-player field by the US Tennis Association on Tuesday - and by far the most noteworthy.
The former No. 1-ranked player and owner of five major titles, including at the 2006 US Open, will be participating in her first Grand Slam tournament in more than 1½ years.
Sharapova has not entered a major tournament since the Australian Open in January 2016, when she tested positive for the newly banned drug meldonium.
That led to a 15-month doping ban, which expired in April.
The US Open starts in Flushing Meadows on Aug. 28.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
