Russia's Maria Sharapova withdrew from the WTA Rogers Cup Wednesday just moments after winning a marathon second-round match over Marta Domachowska.

The third-seeded Sharapova needed two hours, 56 minutes to beat the unseeded Domachowska of Poland 7-5, 5-7, 6-2 and then pulled out of the tournament with an injured right shoulder.

"Coming into this tournament I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to compete," Sharapova said.

"In the last few weeks I've been trying to find a solution to the aggravation I did to the shoulder back at Indian Wells in one of my matches. I haven't found the solution yet.

Maria will begin her Montreal campaign under the lights on Wednesday.  Maria will play Marta Domachowska of Poland at 19.30 Eastern time on Stadium Court.

Maria has played Domachowska once before in Seoul on hardcourts in 2004.  Maria won 6-1 6-1.

Maria attended the WTA Tennis fashion on Sunday evening which is part of the Rogers Cup Tennis Tournament at the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth Hotel alongside the other players in the draw.

The draw for the Rogers Cup in Montreal has been released and Maria is the #3 seed and has a bye in the 1st round.  In the 2nd round, Maria will play the winner of the Bethanie Mattek/Marta Domachowska match.  Maria has played Domachowska once before in Seoul in 2004 and won in straight sets and leads the series against Mattek 3-0.  This match will be played on either Tuesday or Wednesday.

For the 2nd consecutive year and for the 3rd time Maria has won the ESPY for 'Best Female Tennis Player'. Congratulations Maria!   

The ESPYS were held last night in Los Angeles and Maria won the ESPY for best tennis player over finalists Justine Henin and Ana Ivanovic.  The ESPYS are decided by fan voting.
