Bath or bar?: Despite being at the top of her game for a decade, Maria Sharapova admits she still gets nervous at big tournaments.

Earlier in the Australian Open she confessed that sangria is her favorite tipple and when asked on Thursday how she calmed down, she joked: "Sit at a bar."

More seriously, she said: "No, usually it depends how I'm feeling. But I don't listen to music, I don't take a bath. None of those. I usually spend some time with my team and we talk about pretty much everything, the match, how we're feeling, things like that."
