Maria Sharapova believes she will need a miracle to play at her best at the French Open.
The world number four, who has yet to play a match on clay this season, arrived at Roland Garros very short of match practice.
A right foot injury has prevented the Russian from playing competitive tennis since her 6-4 6-3 defeat by compatriot Svetlana Kuznetsova in the Nasdaq-100 Open final on April 1.
"I do not think I'm as competitive as I would like to be," Sharapova said.
"If I can play correctly, it will be a miracle. I'm really not at 100 percent," the fourth seed said.
"I've spent the past two weeks training and nursing my injury."
The 2004 Wimbledon champion plays American Mashona Washington on Sunday.
