Sun, Zimonjic win mixed doubles final

 
January 27, 2008 - 5:52PM


China's Sun Tiantian and Serbia's Nenad Zimonjic have won the Australian 
Open mixed doubles final in straight sets at Rod Laver Arena.

Sun and Zimonjic, the fifth seeds, beat Indian duo Sania Mirza and 
Mahesh Bhupathi 7-6 (7-4) 6-4 in one hour and 21 minutes.

The win is Sun's first grand slam victory and Zimonjic's second - the 
Serb also winning the 2004 Australian Open mixed doubles title.

Sun and Zimonjic started with an early break, but Zimonjic's serve was 
broken soon after, with the set eventually going to a tie-break the 
fifth seeds won.

They continued their momentum by breaking Bhupathi in his opening 
service game.

The Indians saved three championship points on Bhupathi's serve in the 
ninth game, before Zimonjic served out the set to secure the title.
