World number one secures the 50th title of her career with a resounding 6-1, 6-4 victory over Maria Sharapova.
Serena Williams retained her Madrid Open title
on Sunday with a devastating display to beat world number two Maria
Sharapova 6-1, 6-4.
The title is Williams' 50th of her singles
career and extends her amazing run over Sharapova who she hasn't lost to
in 12 meetings since 2004.
"Thank you to everyone, to all my fans and to Maria. I am very happy," Williams said afterwards.
Sharapova though was left to reflect on once again coming up short against the world number one.
"Thank you to everyone for being so supportive in every single match.
"It was quite special and I wish I could have went an extra round but there are many more years for me.
"Congratulations to Serena for an excellent match and her excellent week as well."
