Britain's Laura Robson claims that she has "nothing to lose" when she meets Maria Sharapova at the Olympics later today.

Great Britain's Laura Robson has claimed that she has "nothing to lose" going into today's second-round match with Maria Sharapova at the Olympics.

The 18-year-old set up a contest against the Russian third seed following a 7-6 6-4 victory over Czech Lucie Safarova on Monday.

"I've got nothing to lose going into it, so all I can do is fight as hard as I can and try and play as well as I can," Robson told reporters.

"But she's playing some of the best tennis of her life basically. It's definitely going to be a tough match."

The pair's only previous encounter came at Wimbledon last year when Sharapova won in straight sets.
