Maria is a spent force,she will never be the same.She has not been beyond third rd at big events in a long time.Anyone that can run down balls and keep her on the move can win,soon or later she is going to get tired.

TennisAce, I think Sharapova didn't criticize Zheng's serve, she was rather talking about her tactics. And if you have a weak serve, why wouldn't you be allowed to say that someone else's serve is weak as well. And plus, I remember Sharapova's serve was one of her assets before the injury.

I am shocked that Sharapova would be talking about someone's serve being the weakest part of their game seeing as how she has been stinking up the joint for the past 4 years with numerous double faults – yesterday she hit 14 double faults and in her previous match she hit 12. During all that time she hit 1 ace. If anyone has a weak serve it is Sharapova and Jheng took full advantage of it by cracking return winners off it and taking control of the points from the get go. Good win by her and hopes she goes far in this tournie.

Jie Zheng is very good player because she doesn´t allow emotions to go into her game. Ana should learn from her a bit

I stayed up late to watch it and it was so worth it. Zheng was playing fantastically out there, she moved Sharapova all over the court. She is a real fighter and proved herself yet again. I can see her cracking top ten this year if she keeps it up.
