Scaring stuff from Maria Sharapova that today was in “demolition mode” against world no. 156 Ksenia Pervak.
The world no.8 was at her very best to close this formality conceding just 3 games to her opponent in 1 hour. Maria was so dominant to score 55 points vs. Pervak’s 30.
Sharapova
Maria was very happy for her performance and for the fact that she has managed to finish her match despite some gloomy weather conditions. “It’s always nice to get out there on a day like this. It’s good to play first match, as you know. Hopefully you’ll be able to finish the match today with the weather conditions being as they are. It’s always nice to get through.”
Next vs. Pironkova
Maria will play world no.42 Tsvetana Pironkova in the second round. The Bulgarian can be a tricky opponent, but the clay is not her best surface. Head to head is 4-0 for Maria that is widely expected to get to the 3rd round.
