Sharapova and Serena fight injuries ahead of Brisbane
Tennis stars Maria Sharapova and Serena Williams are both set to step up their preparations for the Australian Open by competing at the season-opening Brisbane International, despite injury problems.
World No. 2 Sharapova, who has received a first-round bye, was forced to pull out of an exhibition match in Seoul after complaining of a sore collarbone.
But the French Open champion, who missed the Brisbane tournament 12 months ago with an ankle problem, is keen to return to action ahead of the first grand slam of the New Year in Melbourne.
