yeah not a big deal, i guess many players can do that or have that peculiarity, but if you´re Rafa or Federer everything is overestimated, the media always looking for something that makes them sell more magazines, newspapers,or whatever, everything related to those 2 guys goes on the front page...and yeah Sharapova can do that but female tennis can't be compared to male tennis in terms of generating expectation.
