Azarenka wins Luxembourg Open

LUXEMBOURG (AP) -Top-seeded Victoria Azarenka of Belarus won the Luxembourg Open on Sunday, beating unheralded Monica Niculescu of Romania 6-2, 6-2. The No. 3-ranked Azarenka won the tournament without losing a set all week, and had no problems against a player who was in her first WTA Tour final. It was the 22-year-old Azarenka's eighth career title. The 34th-ranked Niculescu has spent most of her career on the ITF circuit but is enjoying her best month ever.
