Veterans gone wild in Miami

Svetlana Kuznetsova and Amelie Mauresmo got a wild card to the Sony Ericsson Open and made the most of it: Today, they won the doubles championship, defeating 3rd seeds Kveta Peschke and Lisa Raymond, 4-6, 6-3, 10-3. This is the team's second win; they won Eastbourne in 2006.

"...defeating 3rd seeds Kveta Peschke and Rennae Stubbs..."

It was Lisa Raymond teaming up with Peschke.

Of course it was, and I was looking right at their names. I am both exhausted and not possessed of much of a brain today. Thanks, Ronoso!

Thanks for pointing that out, Dani. I'm so used to the press not interviewing doubles teams, I forgot to look. They are hilarious together, which doesn't surprise me; each of them is so funny as an individual. The Bondarenkos have some competition!
