Wozniacki wins Rogers Cup

Montreal - World number two Caroline Wozniacki breezed to a 6-3, 6-2 victory over Vera Zvonareva in the final of the rain-hit Rogers Cup, confirming her status as the red-hot favourite for the US Open.

Wozniacki, runner-up to Kim Clijsters at last year's US Open, once again appears to be hitting her hardcourt stride at the right moment with her third win of the season and second hardcourt title in three weeks.

Following her victory, the 20-year-old Dane quickly packed her bags and headed off for her final US Open tune-up in New Haven where she is the top seed and defending champion.

A razor-sharp Wozniacki began the day crushing Russian Svetlana Kuznetsova 6-2, 6-3 in their rain delayed semi-final held over from Saturday and then disposed of Wimbledon finalist Zvonareva in just 74 minutes.
