That evening, Jim was in his room, watching TV. A news item mentioned that the Wimbledon tennis tournament would be beginning the next day. It was accompanied by a brief clip of Maria Sharapova serving. That gave Jim an idea. "Can you do this?" he asked the Leprechaun, proceeding to outline what he had in mind.
"Sure," the Leprechaun said.
Next day:
Just before going out on court for her first match of the tournament, Maria Sharapova discovered that someone had managed to slip a note into her tennis bag. It read:
Maria, you are a beautiful woman and a marvellous tennis player. But the shriek you emit every time that you hit the ball is really annoying. You really ought to stop doing it. To help you, we'll try a little aversion therapy. Every time that you shriek, your breasts will grow by one cup size. That's going to make playing your backhand increasingly difficult, and will soon start to affect your mobility. So mend your ways.
Maria laughed. How ridiculous. She received a lot of messages from weirdoes, but this was probably the strangest yet.
