Maria falled friday in semifinal of the Pilot Pen Tennis at Yale in New Haven. In quarterfinal, Maria won against Dinara Safina (RUS) in one hour and 29 minutes. The score : 6-3, 6-3.

Unfortunatly, Nadia Petrova (RUS) fought back from a first set blowout to beat Maria in semifinal (2-6, 6-2, 6-2) in one hour and 58 minutes.

« Even if you have pain, you have to try. I decided to continue, said Maria, who was treated for a low back injury during the match. I was in pain in the first set, but I won it because she was making a lot of mistakes. She was missing the first ball, the second ball. It was good for me. But then she started to play better. I’m playing well and to get this out of nowhere is always sad. »
