    I expected a close match between Maria and Shenck and it turned out to be one.Too bad, I did not paw Maria. Maria saved one match point at the brink of defeat, what a steely determination.

    maria frooze towards the end of the 3rd and saved a match point at full stretch with a crosscourt net. after 20-20 she remained calm with schenk hitting into the net of the serve and out.

    Maria really a fighter as she defeated Germany's Schenk in 69 mins with tight rubber games. Maria will face Yoana Martinez (ESP) tomorrow, huge chance for Maria to advance to next round.

    We can see it Rudy but it is so much delayed since the bandwidth is not big enough for all the people watching here in the US
