Maria Sharapova has pulled out of this week's WTA tournament in Montreal for the second time in three years.
Maria, who was the 2009 Rogers Cup finalist, made the announcement on her website after injuring her left heel in a 2-6, 7-6, 6-2 loss to Kim Clijsters in the Cincinnati final.
But Maria is confident the injury will heal ahead of the final grand slam of the year, the US Open, starting on 30 August.
"Another tough final for me today, I had my chances and did not take them. Kim is such a great champion and really showed it after the rain delay. I felt some pain in my foot late in the second set which kind of scared me so I have been forced to pull out of Montreal. I am hoping I just need a few days of rest."
