Serena Williams finally wins a WTA Tournament in 2009

So Serena Williams finally wins a WTA Tournament in 2009, leaving it as late as possible. She's a great champion winning all five of her matches and leaving the other girls in a mess of injuries and excuses. Nice of Venus to make the final but she's never been close this week.

Jelena Dokic has been madly squirreling away Challenger points so that when she fails to repeat her Aus Open success her ranking won't completely fall in a heap. She won the 100K Poitiers event and gained some revenge over Arvidsson who beat her in the last final. It's not a Major quarter-final but they're adding up nicely.

Ljubicic won Lyon, Stakhovsky won St Pete and proved he's no flash in the pan Safin beater and Melzer won Vienna.

Serena lost the doubles in Doha and then pulled out of Fed Cup - assuming she really was going.
