Liezel Huber and her Zimbabwean partner Cara Black have won the Paris Open doubles title on Sunday, after beating the Czech combination of Gabriela Navratilova and Vladimira Uhlirova in a match lasting less than one hour.
Huber, who has recently made the decision to settle in and take up USA citizenship, is on a streak of wins, having won the Australian Open women’s doubles with Black in Melbourne in January.
The top-seeded pairing cleaned up the tier II Sony Ericsson WTA Tour event, the Open Gaz de France in Paris, conceding only two games in the first set, to win 6-2 6-0.
The two have won 14 of their 16 matches in the season to date, and now leave for the Proximus Diamond Games in Antwerp, Belgium, where Cara Black is a defending champion, having won the 2006 title with then-partner Els Callens.
