Serena beats Azarenka to win US Open

World number one Serena Williams defeated Belarusian Victoria Azarenka 7-5 6-7 6-1 to win her 5th US open title after (1999, 2002, 2008, 2012) and her 17th grand slam title overall.

The Amercian was 4-1 up in the second set with double breaks but Viki clawed her way back and forced a tie break which she won 8-6 to level the match, however Azarenka had nothing left in the third set as she lost it 6-1.

This is Serena's second grand slam title after the French open where she defeated Maria Sharapova 6-4 6-4, she now has 17 grand slams, the same number as Swiss Ace Roger Federer.
