BEATS
KERBER
FOR
BANK OF THE WEST TITLE

STANFORD, Calif. — Serena Williams stared at the court, took a deep breath and seemed to clear her head after falling behind in the first set. She dominated the rest of the way.
Playing her first tournament since her departure from Wimbledon because of equilibrium problems, the top-ranked Williams won her WTA-leading fourth title of the year, beating third-seeded Angelique Kerber 7-6(1), 6-3 on Sunday in Bank of the West Classic.

RAONIC
DEFEATS
POSPISIL
IN
FIRST ATP ALL-CANADIAN FINAL

WASHINGTON — The king of Canadian tennis isn’t ready to give up his throne just yet.
Milos Raonic delivered a strong message Sunday with a workmanlike 6-1, 6-4, win against countryman Vasek Pospisil in an anti-climactic Citi Open final in Washington, D.C. The match marked the first all-Canadian final in ATP history and took just 67 minutes to complete.
“It gives me a lot of confidence,” said Raonic, who earned his first ATP title of 2014 and will rise one spot in the latest ATP rankings and match his career-high of No. 6 in the world.
