It's being reported that Masha has withdrawn from Paris and Dubai (hasn't been confirmed on her site yet). I guess that shoulder isn't moving along at the pace she'd like. From a selfish perspective I hope she's back for Indian Wells but something tells me that's not going to happen.
If I'm Maria, I just keep rehabbing and focus on Wimbledon as my comeback. No use blowing out her shoulder trying to win RG this year. The only reason she should play tournaments right now is if she wants to get her ranking up. But I say just go into Wimbly with maybe Eastbourne under your belt, and try and take it. I mean, we know from last year's AO that she doesn't really need to play herself into form. She can come blasting out of the gate and play 7 matches of spectacular tennis.
Just sayin'. It's a thought.
