Maria Sharapova didn’t get to be the Wimbledon champion and the number one ranked tennis player in the world without knowing a lot about discipline, focus, and yes, the power of a schedule.
So when the former tennis champion, who won Wimbledon in 2004 at age 17, welcomed her son Theo in 2022 with her fiancé Alexander Gilkes, she understood how helpful it can be to stick to a routine.
“I think in some ways there were so many elements of my sport that I could I apply into motherhood,” she tells PEOPLE.
“Just the discipline of the schedules and routines and seeing the benefit of that through their behavior and through their eyes has also been really helpful. When I was playing, knowing where I was going to be and when I was going to nap and when I was going to eat helped me so much with my energy.”
