Maria Sharapova vs Timea Babos live: Watch US Open 2017 tennis on TV, online

The Russian glamorous tennis queen Sharapova enters her second round match after a stunning win over Simona Halep at the US Open on Monday.

Maria Sharapova has received a major boost to her US Open campaign this time around. She is already being hailed as a favourite to lift the title following the exit of two big shots of women's tennis, in the competition so far.

While the glamorous Russian star knocked out one of the title favourites, Simona Halep, in her very first round match of US Open 2017 on Monday, defending US Open champion Angelique Kerber was shown the door by Japan's Naomi Osaka on Tuesday. Osaka won 6-3 6-1 against Kerber.

HIGHLIGHTS FROM SHARAPOVA'S MATCH AGAINST BABOS.

With two of the potential title contenders out of the scene and Serena Williams not participating at US Open 2017, Sharapova has a massive chance to win the second US Open title in her career at the age of 30.

For that, she needs to continue her winning momentum in the tournament.

"Tennis is a very individual sport. You feel like it's just you most of the time out there. Since I've come back, I feel like I'm on a team," said Sharapova, after her win over Halep.

Unforgettable night! Thank you, New York.

"I'm not just winning for myself, but I'm winning for everyone that has stood behind me. That is a very special feeling."

Against Timea Babos of Hungary, Sharapova finds herself colliding with an opponent who is younger and also hungry for making it big in women's tennis. The 24-year-old, who has never progressed past the third round in the US Open, enters the match against Sharapova at the back of a thrilling three-set win over Viktorija Golubic.

Sharapova and Babos have never met before in the tennis court in women's singles competition.
