Hours after Peyton Manning announced his retirement, it was rumored that Maria Sharapova might do the same because she announced a press conference to make a "major announcement."
But instead Sharapova announced that she failed a drug test for meldonium.

The 28-year-old has been the highest paid female athlete in the world for 11 years in a row, according to Forbes, which points out that she made nearly $30 million between June 2014 and June 2015. And since less than $7 million of that was from prize money, the bulk of it was from her sponsors, which include Nike NKE, -3.41%Head, Porsche, Evian and Avon.
She also started a candy company called Sugarpovain 2012, which has been very successful.
Sharapova won Wimbledon at age 17 and became an instant star. The sponsorships came quickly, including a deal with Nike that guaranteed her $70 million, according to Newsweek. She was born in Russia and moved to the U.S. when she was 7, but says she doesn't plan to give up her Russian nationality.
On the court, she has won five Grand Slam titles — Wimbledon in 2004, the U.S. Open in 2006, the Australian Open in 2008, and the French Open in 2012 and 2014. Having won each of the major tournaments at least once, she is one of only six women to win the "career Grand Slam" in the Open era, which began in 1968.
