New York,<\/p>\n
Martina Hingis declared herself amazed after capturing her 25th career Grand Slam crown, partnering with Taiwan\u2019s Chan Yung-Jan to win the US Open women\u2019s doubles title. The Swiss star, who turns 37 later this month, won her 13th Grand Slam women\u2019s doubles title as she and Chan beat Czechs Lucie Hradecka and Katerina Siniakova 6-3, 6-2. In Grand Slam events, Hingis also has won five singles titles and seven mixed doubles crowns, the most recent of those coming on Saturday alongside Britain\u2019s Jamie Murray on the New York hardcourts.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, I think it sinks in maybe little later. Not right now,\u201d Hingis said. \u201cBut yeah, 25 sounds pretty amazing. I\u2019m definitely very proud. What I\u2019ve done in my career earlier, I\u2019m very proud of that. I was very young. It has been 20 years, been on and off.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hingis won the 1997 US and Australian Open and Wimbledon singles titles plus the 1998 and 1999 Australian Open singles crowns. Asked if she might consider a return to singles, Hingis gave a polite but firm rejection to the idea, saying she relies upon partners too much. \u201cNo thanks. I\u2019m doing just fine with the mixed and the doubles. I have a couple of great partners I can rely on,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can see Chan was amazing, what she was capable of doing, especially at the net. Usually I feel like I\u2019m the good net player, but she showed that she\u2019s got some skills, like a Ninja Warrior, chip chop, and that\u2019s the work.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
