Sharapova
Maria lost to Carla in Montreal last year, so she was a bit worried “We went back and forth with our victories in 2014 so I’m always a little bit aware of girls that I lose to. I certainly know that she’s capable of playing really well, though. She plays defense great and makes you hit a lot of balls. Especially on a slower court like here, you just don’t want to give her that much time to play her game. I thought I did a good job of that today.
Maybe I made a little too many unforced errors in the beginning, but I finished strong.”
Next vs. Svitolina
Sharapova will play the semifinal against Elina Svitolina. Head to head is 1-0 for Maria that is the hot favorite to reach the final.
