Weekend Tennis Report



Nice win for Tomas Berdych at the Stockholm Open, where he rallied to defeat Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4. 


Meanwhile, Venus Williams won her first title in years, with a straight-sets victory over Monica Niculescu in Luxembourg, and Caroline Wozniacki proved she ain't been licked, with a 6-2, 4-6, 7-5 win over Samantha Stosurto take home the crown in Moscow.


And here are the eight women who qualified for the BNP Paribas WTA Championships in Istanbul: (L-R) Li Na of China, Angelique Kerber of Germany, Petra Kvitova of Czech Republic, Victoria Azarenka of Belarus, Maria Sharapova of Russia, Serena Williams of USA, Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland and Sara Errani of Italy. Weird to see so many top players in the year-event, no? And who knew Kvitova's rack was so huge?
