Sharapova nearly wins; No. 11 seed ousted in three sets by British wildcard

Maria Sharapova was on the brink of winning her second round match against Alexa Glatch, but the rain came back and halted play, while four matches that were not completed yesterday for the same reason were finished.

Sharapova was leading the American with a score of 63 5-4, and Glatch was on serve. Then the match was suspended due to rain, and will be finished tomorrow.

No. 11 seed Anne Keothavong exited early after losing to Sania Mirza, 61 76(5).

British wildcard Naomi Cavaday ousted No. 12 seed Tamarine Tanasugarn, 76(5) 26 64.
