EAST RUTHERFORD, N. .J. -- New York Giants wide receiver Hakeem Nicks wont play in Sundays game against Cleveland because of recurring left foot and knee problems. Nicks has missed the last two games and coach Tom Coughlin said Thursday that Nicks wont be available against the Browns. That complicates New Yorks passing game because backup Ramses Barden has a concussion and his status is uncertain. Safety Antrel Rolle said he wont be sidelined with a left knee problem, and the Giants certainly could use him in a secondary plagued by injuries. The other starting safety, Kenny Phillips (right knee), is out, and cornerback Corey Webster is playing with a broken right hand. Webster also has a hamstring issue. "Whenever I am not out there, it is not anything I will ever be comfortable with," said Rolle, who also didnt practice Thursday. Neither did Webster nor linebacker Michael Boley (hip), who also said he expects to play against Cleveland. "Youve just got to be smart about a lot of things in this league and we are doing it." Also missing practice Thursday was defensive tackle Rocky Bernard (quadriceps). Back at work were centre David Baas (right hand) and guard Chris Snee (hip).

The second-seeded former world No. 1 Sharapova eased past 19th-seeded fellow Russian Ekaterina Makarova 6-2, 6-2 to set up a semifinal match with the 2011 Aussie finalist Li. With the first set tied at 2-2, Sharapova earned her second break of the match following a Makarova double fault and powered her way through the next three games to take the set with a second-serve ace. The career Grand Slam winner then dominated the second set with 10 winners before finishing off the left-handed Makarova with another emphatic ace. "Shes beaten quality players over the course of last week, and I know that shes capable of playing really good, with deep hitting," Sharapova said of Makarova, who toppled fifth-seeded Angelique Kerber and 11th-seeded Marion Bartoli in her previous two matches. "Also a lefty, which is a bit tricky and I thought I handled that pretty good and was able to keep my focus all the way through the match." The 25-year-old Sharapova, who has been dominant through her first five matches of this fortnight, is the reigning Roland Garros champion who lost to Victoria Azarenka in last years Aussie finale. The Russian superstar titled here in 2008, and was also a Melbourne runner-up in 2007. The sixth-seeded Li lost to Agnieszka Radwanska in a semifinal in Sydney two weeks ago, but the former French Open champion from China avengged that defeat on Tuesday by ousting the fourth-seeded Radwanska, who had not lost a set in 2013 until succumbing to Li 7-5, 6-3 at Rod Laver Arena on Tuesday. [url=http://www.buccaneersofficialteamstore.com/autographed-mason-foster-jersey-... Foster Jersey. Li broke Radwanskas serve four times in the opening set. Radwanska, who earned three breaks herself, saved one set point at 5-6, but misfired wide left on the next point and hit the final ball of the 66-minute first set into the net. The 30-year-old Li, who has not lost a set this tournament, broke at love to take a 4-2 lead in the second set, and saved two break points leading 5-3 in the second before Radwanska was long on a match point. Radwanska was seeking her third title in three events this season. "I really dont know what it is here," Li said. "It seems whenever I come down here my results are always quite consistent, no big setbacks or anything. "Im not sure whether its the winter training but it does seem like Im just better at this tournament." Li will meet Sharapova for a 13th time, with the Russian bomber leading their lifetime series 8-4, including a third-round Aussie Open win back in 2005. Wednesdays quarterfinals will pit the world No. 1 and defending champion Azarenka against two-time Grand Slam champion Svetlana Kuznetsova and third-seeded former No. 1 Serena Williams versus 19-year-old 29th-seeded fellow American Sloane Stephens. Williams owns 15 major singles titles, including last years Wimbledon and U.S. Open championships, and shes an Open Era-record five-time Aussie Open titlist. ' ' '
