Maria Sharapova Returns to an Australian Open Final
Maria Sharapova has been playing really well in this year's Australian Open. In the fourth round, she edged out a challenge from German Sabine Lisicki - and today, she once again stuck with her shots as she edged Petra Kvitova in their very close semifinal. At 4-4 in the third set, the next games could have gone either way - and this time - to avenge her loss in the Wimbledon final last year - it was Maria's time to shine.
It would be great to see her get her second Australian Open title, but she will have to fight just as hard as she fought today to ward off the challenge from Victoria Azarenka.
