Defending champion and World third seed Maria Sharapova showed signs of rust but emerged with a 6-1, 3-6, 6-3 victory over Patty Schnyder in round robin play at the three million-dollar WTA Tour Championships. Sharapova, who has battled injuries in the latter stages of her 2005 campaign, has played just two tournaments since the US Open, reaching the semi-finals Beijing and crashing out of the quarters in Moscow in mid-October.
Sharapova has the day off on Wednesday, before finishing round-robin play against world number one Lindsay Davenport and Russian Nadia Petrova.
