Welcome to this week's edition of "Hot Shots," a USOpen.org-curated look at what you may have missed on social media over the past seven days.
The biggest news in tennis this week came from off the court, as five-time Grand Slam champion Maria Sharapova announced her immediate retirement from the sport on Wednesday.
In the aftermatch, tributes to the 2006 US Open winner poured in on social media since Wednesday's announcement, with tennis legends, Sharapova's peers and even an Academy Award-winner sharing their thoughts.
Among the current players to send their well-wishes were Petra Kvitova, who beat Sharapova in the 2011 Wimbledon final, and Donna Vekic, who defeated Sharapova in the first round of the Australian Open, in what was ultimately the Russian's final match.
Check out more heartfelt goodbyes to Sharapova from the tennis family in the tweets below.
