NEW YORK (Reuters) - Switzerland's Martina Hingis and Taiwan's Chan Yung-Jan won the U.S. Open women's doubles title on Sunday when they rolled past the Czech partnership of Lucie Hradecka and Katerina Siniakova 6-3 6-2. It was the first grand slam title for Chan but the second in as many days for Hingis, who won the mixed doubles with Britain's Jamie Murray on Saturday. The victory took Hingis's career grand-slam tally to 25, including five singles titles, 13 doubles and seven mixed doubles. "It was an amazing feeling to play here in the singles final against Venus Williams," Hingis said. Hingis and Chan had met the Czech duo twice before this season, winning both meetings including the final in Indian Wells.
