Miami: The victory was the world number one’s third consecutive title at Miami and she becomes just the fourth woman in the open-era to win the same tournament eight times, joining Martina Navratilova, Chris Evert and Steffi Graf.
“It feels really good to have eight under my belt. I can’t say I thought I would win eight, especially in the beginning of the week,” Williams told reporters.
The American had to pull out of Indian Wells before her semi-final due to a knee injury and there had been doubt over her participation at Miami.”It just feels really weird,” said Williams, “and I’m happy to be able to get through it.”
The most titles won at a single event is 12 by Navratilova at Chicago but Williams, appeared horrified at the suggestion if she canmanage four more in Miami. (Reuters)
