La rusa Sharapova (5ta preclasificada del torneo) regresó a la
final de uno de los cuatro torneos principales de la temporada,
después de caer ante la estadounidense Serena Williams en este
mismo certamen, el año pasado.
Sharapova se mostró agresiva desde el comienzo del duelo y,
salvo por un mal game al servicio en el primer set, que permitió a
Ivanovic igualar a 4-4, la estrella rusa controló los puntos
importantes contra una rival serbia por segunda partida
consecutiva.
Se impuso a Jelena Jankovic (3) en las semifinales, luego de
eliminar a la belga Justine Henin, la primera del escalafón
mundial, quien vio rota una racha de 32 triunfos consecutivos.
