Serena Williams captures record sixth Miami title
World No. 1
Serena
Williams
rallied to defeat world No. 2 Maria Sharapova 4-6, 6-3, 6-0 on Saturday in the WTA
Miami
final, winning the event for a
record
sixth
time to claim her 48th career tour
title
.
Sharapova suffered her fifth championship-match loss at
Miami
and still looks for her first
Miami
title
after having been denied a 29th career WTA triumph.
Williams
became only the fourth woman in the modern era to win the same event six times, joining Graf, Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova. Graf's husband, Andre Agassi, won the
Miami
men's
title
six times.
It was the 11th match victory in a row for
Williams
over Sharapova, coming in their first meeting as the top two players in the world rankings, and gave the 31-year-old American a 12-2 edge in their all-time rivalry.
Williams
, who had shared the all-time
Miami
women's
title
mark with Steffi Graf, won the last 10 games in adding to a trophy haul that included crowns in 2002, 2003, 2004, 2007 and 2008 and runner-up efforts in 1999 and 2009.
