Maria Sharapova Win 2011 First Title Rome International by Beating Stosur

This Year First Title Win Maria,Triple Grand Slam title winner Maria Sharapova won her first tournament in almost a year as she powered past Australia's Samantha Stosur 6-2, 6-4 to win the Rome International on Sunday.
Sharapova's last title came at the low-key Strasbourg claycourt event on the eve of last year's French Open.

But having beaten world number one Caroline Wozniacki in Saturday's semi-final, Sharapova proved too much for an erratic Stosur.
It is good news for the Russian just a week ahead of the start of the French Open.
It is the only Grand Slam she has never won and a tournament where she has never been beyond the quarter-finals.
But on her least favourite surface she had too much power for Stosur, finalist at the French Open last year, who racked up the unforced errors throughout the match.

The Australian may be higher in the world rankings but the Russian has far greater pedigree having reached the world number one ranking back in 2005.
Stosur made a particularly nervy, error-strewn opening and picked up only one of the first 15 points.
The sixth seed was 4-0 down before she seemed to settle and managed to hold serve as Sharapova started missing off both flanks.
Stosur started to move Sharapova around and some positive play saw the Russian net a forehand to give up a double break point.
Under pressure again, seventh seed Sharapova sent a defensive lob into the tramlines to give a break back.
The cool and windy conditions were not helping the server and Stosur slumped to 0-40 on her next service game.
She saved the first with a forehand winner down the line and the second when Sharapova went long but a wayward, lofted forehand saw the Australian broken again.
And she sent a backhand long on set point as Sharapova wrapped up the opening set 6-2.
Stosur was equally erratic at the start of the second as she was broken again.
