Maria Sharapova might have opted for shorts to wear in this year's Wimbledon, but her fans on court today were unlikely to have been disappointed with her outfit.


Despite saying she was opting for 'menswear' to play in this year, the Russian wowed the crowds with a translucent shirt which pushed the competition's dress code to the limit.

She appeared to have taken her inspiration from a dress shirt for the top which had a single panel of thicker material at the front.


Other than her sports bra, the rest of her top half was barely concealed beneath a thin white mesh as she fought her first match on Court One against Stephanie Foretz.

Maria will also unveil her tailored new look tomorrow.
