Strong minded and individual as they are, neither Eugenie Bouchard nor Maria Sharapova particularly enjoy the comparisons that are inevitably made between them. That does not stop them being paired up in the covering term 'Geniepova', and their careers will converge further after they set up a meeting in the quarter final of the Australian Open. Their latest encounter comes around after the 20 year-old Canadian defeated Romania's Irina-Camelia Begu 6-1 5-7 6-2 while the Russian made impressively short work of Shuai Peng, winning 6-3 6-0.
