Errani cruises to fourth win this year



Top-seeded Sara Errani cruised past Barbora Zahlavova Strycova 6-1, 6-3 on Sunday to win the Italiacom Open.

Errani dominated from start to finish and took just 1 hour, 15 minutes to beat the eighth-seeded Czech player for her fourth title of the year.

Errani, who was runner-up at the French Open this year, dropped just 20 games in five matches en route to reclaiming the trophy she won in 2008.

Her other victories this year were in Budapest, Barcelona and Acapulco. Errani, who is ranked No 9 in the world, is the first Italian woman to win four tournaments in a season.
