They had lost the summit clash to Czech team of Andrea Hlavácková and Lucie Hradecká. Sania is winner of three mixed doubles Grand Slam trophies. She won Australian Open (2009) and French Open (2012) with compatriot Mahesh Bhupathi and the US Open with Bruno Soares last year. In today’s match, Sania and Hingis yet again dominated the contest as they broke their rivals twice in each set and saved all three breakpoints they faced. They scored 59 points to just 33 of their rivals. PTI
