Serena Williams won her eighth Key Biscayne title Saturday and remained unbeaten this year by drubbing Carla Suarez Navarro 6-2, 6-0 in the final of the Miami Open.
Williams became the fourth woman to win the same WTA event at least eight times. Martina Navratilova won Chicago 12 times, the most titles by a woman at any tournament.
Navratilova was on hand to present the top-ranked Williams with her latest trophy.
Williams claimed her second title this year. She won her 19th Grand Slam championship at the Australian Open in January and has now won 12 consecutive finals.
Williams improved to 18-0 this year. She withdrew before the Indian Wells semifinal last month with a knee injury but quickly recovered.
The top-seeded American team of Mike and Bob Bryan captured their fourth men's doubles title in Miami by downing second-seeded defending Wimbledon champs Jack Sock and Vasek Pospisil 6-3, 1-6, (10-8).
In men's singles, top-seeded Novak Djokovic is within one win of his fifth Key Biscayne title. He will meet Andy Murray on Sunday.
