Maria Survives Marathon Match against Schnyder

Second seed Maria Sharapova twice came from match point down to beat Patty Schnyder in a gruelling three-set win in the fourth round of the French Open.
Swiss player Schynder served for the match three times but each time the Russian, struggling with a shoulder injury, battled back.

The 20-year-old Sharapova finally clinched a 3-6 6-4 9-7 victory after a two-and-a-half-hour marathon.

Sharapova now faces fellow Russian Anna Chakvetadze for a semi-final place. Maria has played Chakvetadze 3 time before and leads the series 3-0. In 2005 Maria defeated Chakvetadze at Roland Garros 6-1 6-4.

Un partidazo y sólo 3 dobles faltas en 3 largos sets. Si el saque funciona el juego de María se revoluciona.

Hey Maria,

What a game. This will be a game to watch over and over again. You have true grit and determination. I just hope you did not do any damage to your shoulder. Get plenty of rest before you next game and good luck.

Vamos María, no importa que los Franceses sean groseros y no respeten tu calidad deportiva y humana. ojalá te hubiera tocado jugar con Mauresmo para que llorarán de verdad al verla eliminada por vos. Viene chakvetadze que es muy fuerte. Be wise and play cool, best of luck tomorrow.
