It'll be at least one more year before Russian starlet Maria Sharapova wins a career Grand Slam.

Sharapova, desperately in search of an elusive French Open title – the only tennis major she's yet to win – was knocked off the clay courts on Monday, losing to fellow Russian Dinara Safina 6-7 (6), 7-6 (5), 6-2.

Sharapova's customary screeches reached maximum volume as the match slipped away, and the noise seemed to annoy fans. They whistled and booed Sharapova as she left Court Suzanne Lenglen after the match, and she didn't acknowledge the crowd.

The upset paid off nicely for tennis bettors who played in the Bodog Sportsbook. Think you've got an upset special on the men's side of the draw? Think Nicolas Almagro (+550) can take the first set off Rafael Nadal (-1000)?
