(CNN) -- Maria Sharapova was forced to call on all her resilience to ensure her place in the semifinals of the French Open Tuesday.

The World No.8 endured a nightmare opening set, losing it 6-1 to Spain's Garbine Muguruza, before launching an impressive fightback.

Sharapova, who was beaten in last year's final, won the second set 7-5 before taking the decider 6-1.

The Russian, who won at Roland Garros in 2012, will now face Canada's rising star Eugenie Bouchard.

"I came across a player playing with such confidence and I knew it was going to be a tough match," Sharapova told the WTA website.

"I had a tough start but luckily I had a good finish.

"She was playing so aggressive at the start, but also I wasn't really helping myself with my movement or serving."

Sharapova, seeded seventh, made a dreadful start to the contest and fell 4-0 behind before finally winning a game.

Murguruza, who defeated defending champion Serena Williams 6-2 6-2 earlier in the tournament, played with a verve and quality which belied her age.

After conceding the first set, she slowly got to grips with 21-year-old Muguruza, who was playing in her first ever grand slam quarterfinal.

There was heartbreak for another Spaniard in the other quarterfinal after Carla Suarez Navarro threw away a 4-1 advantage in the final set.

Bouchard, ranked 16th in the world, appeared to be heading out of the tournament but fought back to take the match 7-6 2-6 7-5.

It is a second successive grand slam semifinal for Bouchard, who was beaten in straight sets by Li Na at the Australian Open earlier this year.
