Maria Sharapova Thrashes Justine Henin | Australian Open Quarter-Finals

The match has just ended, and Maria Sharapova 's great triumph over Justine Henin at the Australian Open quarter-finals is still a shock to the system.

Henin' has had winning streak over her last 30 odd matches but that has now come to a sudden stultifying end.

Maria played brilliantly, some would even say magnificently. She won 6-4 in the first set, then proceeded to crush Henin in the second set by 6-0.

If she keeps up her pace, there will be no stopping her all the way to the championship.
