Safarova & Mattek-Sands win the Australian Open
3
Lucie won the very first Grand Slam title of her career by capturing the Australian Open Doubles title with her partner, Bethanie Mattek-Sands (USA).
This performance is even more impressive due to the facts that Lucie & Bethanie were unseeded and had never played together before!
By defeating Zheng Jie and Chan Yung-jan in the final (6-4, 7-6), they have become the first new pairing to win the omen’s doubles title in Melbourne since 2005.
Congratulations!
