Femme Pas Cher . -- Serena Williams stared at the court, took a deep
breath and seemed to clear her head after falling behind in the first set. She
dominated the rest of the way. Playing her first tournament since her departure
from Wimbledon because of equilibrium problems, the top-ranked Williams won her
WTA-leading fourth title of the year, beating third-seeded Angelique Kerber
7-6(1), 6-3 on Sunday in Bank of the West Classic. Kerber, 0-4 in finals this
season, won five straight games to go up 5-1 and was serving for the first set
at 5-2. Williams saved two set points and went to win five games in a row. "I
blinked my eye and I was down 1-5," Williams said. "Angelique was playing well
and I thought Whats going on? I tried to relax, not think about anything and
just do the right thing." The eighth-ranked Kerber forced a tiebreaker, but
Williams took the first five points. "Its a good thing that it happened,"
Williams said. "When Im not playing great I know I can make some kind of
comeback." Williams didnt play well in any of the first sets this week but
always found a way to win. "Ive been training hard all year and hopefully that
pays off, especially after Wimbledon," Williams said. "I stayed positive here.
This shows Im moving in the right direction." Questions were raised after she
retired from a doubles match with sister Venus at Wimbledon in June. A viral
infection affected her equilibrium. She answered those questions with an
exclamation point Sunday. "Every week is a new week and all I can do is try and
improve," Williams said. "For me its all mental: being there, being positive and
being good to myself." Williams has beaten the left-handed Kerber four straight
times and five of six overall. All of their matches have been in straight sets.
"I gave everything I could out there," Kerber said. "When she was down she
started hitting the ball better. Its a special thing she has. On the important
points, she goes for it." Williams will be No. 1 for the 200th week in her
career when the rankings are announced Monday. She is fifth on the career list,
nine weeks behind fourth-place Martina Hingis. "I feel like Im just me. I dont
feel any different from anyone else on this planet," Williams said. "To be that
of as that is pretty awesome." Williams extended her winning streak to 13
matches in winning her third title at Stanford in four years. "It just says how
much I love to play here," she said. Kerber, who will rise to No. 7, was the
first German to reach the final in the event since Sylvia Hanika in 1987.
Bettina Bunge, in 1983, was the last German to win the tournament. "I had a
great week," Kerber said. "I played some great matches against some good
opponents. She showed shes the best player in the world." Williams has not lost
to a top-10 player this season. Kerber has never beaten a No. 1 player. Williams
improved to 17-2 overall in matches played at Stanford. Shes 30-5 on the season
and 662-117 for her career. Williams is 61-17 in finals. Williams has not played
well at Grand Slam events this year, failing to reach the quarterfinals of the
Australian Open, French Open and Wimbledon. Winning the U.S. Open, she said,
"would make it better but not erase anything. But Im just focused on the next
tournament."

to his first NBA All-Star Game. And the Atlanta Hawks could be headed for a
prime seed in the Eastern Conference playoff race. Especially if Millsaps
teammates continue to contribute like they did Friday night. Mike Scott and
Elton Brand scored 18 points apiece to lead seven Hawks in double figures and
Atlanta routed the Philadelphia 76ers 125-99. DeMarre Carroll contributed 13,
Paul Millsap, Jeff Teague and Lou Williams had 12 apiece, and Kyle Korver added
11 for the Hawks, who moved within eight games of the Miami Heat for first place
in the Southeast Division. "Guys have to be ready," said Brand, who added eight
rebounds. "You never know when your name is going to be called." Millsap learned
on Thursday that he had been named to his first NBA All-Star Game in his
eight-year career. He spent the first seven seasons with the Utah Jazz and
signed with the Hawks as a free agent last July. Millsap, who will be a reserve
for the Eastern Conference All-Stars next month in New Orleans, received plenty
of help against the Sixers. "Hes been one guy weve leaned on heavily this year,"
Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer said. Teague was a game-time decision with a
sprained left ankle and he responded with a productive start. "Weve been happy
with Jeff," Budenholzer said. "He set a tone early. I thought he was attacking
the basket." Thaddeuus Young scored 29 points, Michael Carter-Williams added 17
and Elliot Williams had 15 for the Sixers, who have dropped 11 of their last 13
home games, including five straight.

Mini Bailey Noeud. The Sixers, now 8-16 at home, havent lost five in a row
at home since the 2009-10 season. "It was the poorest performance of our season
tonight," Sixers coach Brett Brown said. "The effort wasnt there." Atlanta led
27-21 after the first quarter and took advantage of 10 Philadelphia turnovers, a
season high for any quarter. After going into the locker room with a 64-52
advantage at the break, the Hawks blitzed the Sixers for 38 points in the third
quarter to take a 102-75 lead and prompt a chorus of boos from Sixers fans. "We
had a lot of turnovers and that was the biggest thing," Young said. "Just too
many turnovers." Before the game, Brown praised the Hawks ball movement and the
fluidity of their offence. Atlantas precision was evident as it had 36 assists
on 45 made field goals. NOTES: Korver hit a 3-pointer with 6:10 left in the
first quarter, extending his streak to 114 straight games with at least one, an
ongoing NBA record. . Sixers C Spencer Hawes was whistled for a technical foul
with 8:17 remaining in the first. G Evan Turner also picked up a technical 49
seconds into the third . Millsap had five steals in the first half . The Sixers
committed 15 turnovers in the first half.
