"When you're doing something down the line -- whether it's trying to win a grand slam in a few years or be number one or try to get a good grade in school... you dont want to regret things later in your career. So when you're in a situation where you're [asking yourself] 'oh, should i do it, should I not?' -- go for it." - Maria Sharapova

Watch: evian chats with Maria at their "Live Young" VIP suite; see more views of the suite (they were serving LOBSTER) here.

On the court: Maria's scheduled as the third match on Court 1 today (after Andy Roddick and Jamie Baker finish their rain-delayed match) and she'll play Tsvetana Pironkova in the second round. (Draw: Women's Singles)
