Martina Hingis and Sania Mirza beat Irina-Camelia Begu and Monica Niculescu in straight sets to win their seventh WTA doubles title of the year at the Dongfeng Motor Wuhan Open.
They dropped serve three times and had to battle back from a 2-0 deficit in the second set, but at the end of the day the No.1-seeded Hingis and Mirza were just too strong in just about every department, needing just 69 minutes to beat unseeded Romanians Begu and Niculescu for the title, 6-2, 6-3.
The Swiss-Indian pairing now have seven WTA doubles titles together this year - Indian Wells, Miami, Charleston, Wimbledon, the US Open, Guangzhou and now Wuhan. They've won their last three tournaments in a row - US Open, Guangzhou and Wuhan - and their last 13 matches in a row, too.
Even more impressive? They haven't dropped a set in any of the 13 matches in this winning streak. "Maybe Niculescu and Begu weren't as experienced as a team as other teams, but they got to the final, so they're playing really well," Hingis said. "You need to get up and beat them, and do your job."
