China Open Maria Sharapova hammered by Simona Halep in Beijing.
Halep won 6-2 6-2 in Beijing to beat the Russian for the first time in her career.
Halep had previously lost seven straight match ups with the former world no.1.
But Sharapova was no match for her today and Halep moves into the quarter-finals where she will face either Agnieszka Radwanska or Daria Kasatkina.
