US Open - Women's Final
4 Serena Williams d 1 Victoria Azarenka - 62 26 75
2012 will go down in the tennis history as the Summer of Serena.
She cleaned up the 3 big titles on offer: Wimbledon, Olympics & US Open.
And she came from the brink to win her 15th Slam...
Vika was up 5-3 and Serving for it. Serena broke and won the next 3 games.
Serena even admitted: I was really prepared for my runner-up speech.
Only 5 woman have more Slams than Serena (AO-5, W-5, USO-4, RG-1):
Court with 24, Graf 22, Moody 19 and both Navratilova and Evert with 18.
Serena's first USO title came in 1999 - she has title in 3 different decades.
Post match: Yeah, three decades - the '90s, 2000s, 2010s, that's kind of cool.
It's exciting to have this opportunity. And 13 years is a long time between...
the first and the last.
For me to get this 13 years later, and that I'm at No.15 now, it's so cool.
