Clijsters and Sugiyama win doubles title Posted: Sunday July 06, 2003 1:26 PMWIMBLEDON, England (AP) -- Kim Clijsters and Ai Sugiyama picked up the women's doubles title Sunday, defeating Paola Suarez and Virginia Ruano Pascual 6-4, 6-4. The pair won the French Open title last month, also beating Suarez and Ruano Pascual in the championship match. It was a sweet victory for the Belgian-Japanese duo on Centre Court. They lost the Wimbledon doubles final two years ago, and Sugiyama lost the Wimbledon doubles final in 2000, when she was playing with Julie Halard-Decugis. Clijsters and Sugiyama have now won four of five matches against Suarez of Argentina and Ruano Pascual of Spain. The loss was the second straight in the Wimbledon doubles final for the Argentine-Spanish pair, falling a year ago to Serena and Venus Williams. |
