Azaranka defeats Williams, winning Qatar tournament

Belarusian Victoria Azaranka managed to confirm her title of the tournament winner - last year she also won this major tennis contest in Qatar. However, last year she had Samantha Stosur as a rival, while this year Victoria has to pull the victory from the grasp of one of the world's most brutal players - Serena Williams.

Last time they played against each other was on December 9, 2012 - it was an exhibition game in Sao Paolo, Brazil. Azaranka also won then - 6:3, 7:5. Before this, Williams gave practically no chance to her: the score of their personal meetings was 12:1 to Serena. Today the score became 12:3, and the Belarusian won a prestigious tournament.
