Thursday, July 17 Second Grand Slam title for each Associated Press MELBOURNE, Australia -- Daniela Hantuchova and Kevin Ullyett each won their second Grand Slam title, beating Gaston Etlis and Paolo Suarez 6-3, 6-2 for the Australian Open mixed doubles championship Sunday.
Hantuchova added the Australian title to the Wimbledon mixed doubles championship she won with Leos Friedl last year. Hantuchova is 10-0 in Grand Slam mixed doubles matches.
"This is beyond my expectations. I've been in two mixed doubles (championships) and I haven't lost yet," Hantuchova said.
Hantuchova and Spaniard Arantxa Sanchez Vicario lost the women's doubles championship to Martina Hingis and Anna Kournikova on Friday.
"I'm really happy because I was in the final of the doubles and missed that -- I really wanted to take home one title," she said. "It was excellent the way we played today, we were really aggressive."
Ullyett teamed with Wayne Black to win the U.S. Open men's doubles title last September. |
