Maria Sharapova has pulled out of next week's Italian Open and the following Madrid Open as her shoulder continues to cause serious concerns.

The three-time Grand Slam champion and former world number one has not played a singles match since last August after surgery on her right shoulder.

Sharapova played her first match in seven months on 12 March when she lost a doubles match in Indian Wells.

The Russian has slipped to number 64 in the world rankings.
