Over the weekend, the tennis world went wild with rumors of Maria Sharapova potentially retiring after she announced an emergency press conference for Monday in Los Angeles.
But fortunately for tennis fans, the impromptu presser had nothing to do with calling it a career. Instead, Maria just dropped a bomb and announced she had failed a drug test by testing positive for Meldonium:

But the positive drug test isn’t what caught the attention of the BC office — it was this major slight at the hotel’s choice of carpeting:

Upon further review, we strongly agree with Maria that announcing her retirement on this crap would’ve been a travesty:
