Venus Takes 40th Career Title In Dubai
Saturday, February 21, 2009
After a 6-4, 6-2 win over France's Virginie Razzano, American Venus Williams took her 40th career title and returned to the world's top five at the Barclays Dubai Tennis Championships today.
Venus has displayed excellent mental and physical form since hitting the courts in 2009. That same look and precision game was evident today. The match consisted of great hitting and impressive rallies. Razzano was definitely no fluke getting to the final, she put forward a very strategic defense, though it never seemed to be enough to diminish the power coming at her from the other side of the net.
Post match Venus said, "It was a great week to be able to win against the world's best player, my sister."
When asked about the possibility of getting back to world no. 1 Venus said, "well I would love to be the best in the world - and I am coming. So I am going to try."
With regard to Razzano Venus said, "I have to congratulate her, she beat some top players and played well again today."
Congrats Venus!
