Maria Sharapova has a busy start of 2014 ahead: she’s scheduled to play Brisbane, the Australian Open, the Paris Indoors and then will head to Sochi, Russia with NBC Olympics as a correspondent for its Winter Games coverage.

 

Sharapova lived in Sochi as a child and has visited there on occasion since she moved to the United States.

 

She won’t be doing analysis but will do special features on the city of Sochi and the Olympics. She will team with Ryan Seacrest and sometimes tennis broadcaster Mary Carillo. She will help put the features together and then present them in studio with the well-known host Bob Costas. Sharapova has not played since August due to shoulder trouble.

 

“Maria transcends sports as one of the world’s most recognizable stars,” said Jim Bell, Executive Producer of NBC Olympics. “Growing up in Sochi until she was 6 years old and with family and friends still living in the area, Maria will offer a unique and personal perspective on a place she knows so well.”

 

The Winter Olympics begin on Feb. 6
