MOSCOW - World number one Jelena Jankovic overpowered Vera Zvonareva 6-2 6-4 in the Kremlin Cup final on Sunday to win her third title in a row.
Jankovic, making her debut in Moscow, broke the Russian twice to take the first set in just over half an hour.
The in-form Serbian, who also beat Zvonareva on her way to winning titles in Stuttgart and Beijing in the past two weeks, led 4-2 in the second but allowed the seventh seed to break back to level at 4-4.
The top seed, however, earned another break in the ninth game before going on to clinch victory after 81 minutes when Zvonareva overhit her forehand on matchpoint.
