Top seed Maria Sharapova crashed out of the Paris Open in the quarterfinals after falling 6-4, 6-4 ninth seed Angelique Kerber.
Paris – Top seed Maria Sharapova crashed out of the WTA Paris Open in the quarter-finals on Friday after falling 6-4, 6-4 to German ninth seed Angelique Kerber.
Sharapova had breezed past Kerber in straight sets en route to the Australian Open final last month but the 24-year-old exacted sweet revenge on the world number three at a disbelieving Pierre de Coubertin indoor arena.
Kerber, the world number 27, had never previously beaten a top-10 player and will now face either Belgian world number 29
Yanina Wickmayer or 21-year-old German qualifier Mona Barthel for a place in the final. – Sapa-AFP
