10/19/2008 - Zurich, Switzerland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - American Venus Williams knocked off Italy's Flavia Pennetta in straight sets Sunday to capture the $600,000 Zurich Open.
The 28-year-old Williams, who outlasted Serbian star Ana Ivanovic 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 on Saturday in the semifinals, was pushed to a first-set tiebreak by Pennetta, but took a 6-0 lead in the tiebreaker and dominated the match the rest of the way. Williams walked away with a 7-6 (7-1), 6-2 victory and took home $95,500 for her work.
Williams, who converted on 2-of-4 break-point chances, collected six aces to zero for Pennetta, who left Zurich with $51,000 as the runner-up. The 26-year- old Pennetta committed four double-faults in the loss to Williams and did not break Williams' serve during the match.
Pennetta earned a 6-3, 7-6 (8-6) victory over Anabel Medina Garrigues in the semis of this event. She had a very solid showing in Zurich, as she also eliminated reigning world No. 1 and U.S. Open runner-up Jelena Jankovic on Thursday.
