Serena Williams wins first W&S Open singles title

Serena Williams has an additional to her list of victory as she won the Western & Southern Open. The top ranked won against Ana Ivanovic with 6-4, 6-1 scores which took sixty two minutes only on Sunday at the Lindner Family Tennis Center in Mason. “It is amazing, finally being able to win today,” Williams said prior to receiving the championship cup in the post-match awards ceremony. Serena also adds that it was her best performance and hoping not to be the last. She had back problem but it did not stop her from winning and she was so excited for the final and to be in the final.

“This is definitely a level that can take me to the (U.S. Open) title. I still have a lot of work to do. It is definitely a better level than I have played all year, to be honest.”

On the other hand, Ivanovic believed that Serena Williams was dominating. “Definitely at some point of the match, I actually felt quite embarrassed walking from one side to the other for returns,” Ivanovic said with a self-deprecating giggle. “Yeah, we are lucky to have someone like her in our game and it feels good to be part of this game and I know I have more things to work on and that’s definitely the most exciting part.”
