A hard fought win but a well deserved one for the Belarusian who ends the year with two hard court Grand Slam titles under her belt after also enjoying success at the Australian Open in January.
It was always going to be a tall order for American Jessica Pegula, making her debut in the final of the Grand Slam event, but she made one of the top hard court players on the circuit work extremely hard.
