Tennis legend Martina Navratilova congratulated Sania Mirza and her Swiss partner Martina Hingis for winning the $7 million WTA Finals women's doubles title here on Sunday, adding that the Indian was "just awesome" on court.
Sania and Martina took just an hour and seven minutes to rout Spanish eighth seeds Garbine Muguruza and Carla Suarez Navarro 6-0, 6-3 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium to clinch the year-ending, prestigious title.
This is the Indo-Swiss pair's ninth title of the season and 22nd consecutive match win.
"@WTA @mhingis @MirzaSania what a dominating performance from the world #1 team but particularly Sania- just awesome!" Navratilova, who presented the winner's trophy to the top seeds, tweeted.
