Maria Sharapova, the former world’s number one, looked the part on Thursday night as she cruised past Christina McHale in straight sets 6-2, 6-1 in the second round of the 2009 U.S. Open.
Sharapova struggled a bit with her first serve, putting just 50 percent in play but she managed to win 79 percent of those offerings. The Russian committed seven double faults and 20 unforced errors in the match but McHale was overmatched and could produce just six winners in the match.
