Maria Sharapova models in new Nike campaign

We all know that Maria Sharapova has tried her hand at modelling more than once but in her new Nike campaign, she is looking better than ever.

The former No. 1 tennist star showed off her washboard abs and biceps while she was being photographed for the new advert but it doesn't stop there.

The 24-year-old posed in tiny blue hot pants and a white sports bra while doing abdominal crunches for the photographer... something for the boys.

In another set of photographs, the blonde American-citizen poses alongside other sports stars such runner Allyson Felix, American footballer Hope Solo and Algerian dancer, Sofia Boutella.

The campaign is due to appear in issues of Seventeen, InStyle and Glamour magazines but Nike have kept the athletes wages under wraps.

Sharapova has previously modelled for Sports Illustarated Swimsuit Issue, among magazine shoots.
