Now Maria Sharapova will be automatically included in the 1/4 finals. Her opponent will be either Spaniard garbine Muguruza or Ukrainian tennis player Lesya Tsurenko.

“This is a difficult decision. I love to play with Mary… But I promised myself and my team that will not play if I don’t feel ready at least 60 percent. Never in my life felt so. It’s hard. I’m incredibly frustrated, because for this moment sacrificed so much — time spent with family, with my daughter. Why I’m so uneasy now.”
