Venus Williams captured her third trophy in Dubai and first title in 16 months by calmly dispatching Frenchwoman Alize Cornet 6-3, 6-0 at the Aviation Club yesterday Sat.Feb. 22.
The 33-year-old American has taken her winning streak in Dubai to 15, having won the title in 2009 and 2010 and having missed the events in between. Cornet, who took out the younger Williams sister, Serena, in the semi-finals the night before, was bidding to win her fourth career title and first since Strasbourg last season, but Venus proved too strong for the 24-year-old to handle.
