BIRMINGHAM, England -- Maria Sharapova faced a much tougher test in the third round than the second round at the $200,000 DFS Classic on Thursday. She still passed. The top seed and defending champion from Russia, Sharapova moved on to the quarterfinals at the Wimbledon warmup event with a 6-3, 3-6, 6-1 triumph over No. 16 Samantha Stosur of Australia. The 18-year-old Sharapova, who parlayed the title here to her first Grand Slam title at Wimbledon last year, had dropped just three games in a second-round win over Anne Kremer of Luxembourg. Sharapova next will face Eleni Daniilidou of Greece, who upset No. 8 Ai Sugiyama of Japan, 6-3, 6-3. Another seeded player from Japan, No. 6 Shinobu Asagoe, was bounced Thursday. She was felled by Russian Anna Chakvetadze, 6-4, 6-4. Chakvetadze awaits either No. 5 Tatiana Golovin of France, the runner-up last year, or Rika Fujiwara of Japan in the quarterfinals. Third-seeded Serbian Jelena Jankovic posted an easy 6-1, 6-4 win over Venezuelan Milagros Sequera in the third round. She next will face American Mashona Washington, who beat Spaniard Arantxa Parra Santonja, 6-2, 6-4. American Laura Granville, who upset second seed Alicia Molik of Australia in the second round, beat compatriot Jamea Jackson, a qualifier, 7-6 (5), 6-4, to reach the quarterfinals. Granville will face Tamarine Tanasugarn of Thailand, a 2-6, 6-3, 6-3 winner over Stephanie Foretz of France. First prize is $31,000. http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/tennis/news/story?id=2081162 ======================================================= -- http://0rz.net/5e0p9 Marion Raven (M2M) -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.119.141.211 ※ 編輯: jcshie 來自: 140.119.141.211 (06/10 00:31)
