Serena Williams and Svetlana Kuznetsova Winners on Hardcourts

Serena wins Bank of the West Classic

This week Serena Williams made a return statement. With an impressive run through the draw she clinched her third Bank of the West Classic title in California. 

Angelique Kerber started off to a flyer and raced to a 5-1 lead, then Williams' survival mode kicked in and she rattled of that first set and sprinted though the second to a 7-6(1), 6-3 victory.

It hasn't been the greatest of years for Serena in the majors, but on the Women's tour, she now leads the ladies again with 4 titles on tour this year.

Serena looks set for a three-peat at Flushing in less than a month's time.
