Clijsters seals dream US Open win

Belgian Kim Clijsters crowned her remarkable comeback by beating Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark 7-5 6-3 to win the U.S. Open women's title on Sunday.

Clijsters, playing her third tournament after taking more than two years off to start a family, clinched her 93-minute victory with a forehand winner and dropped to her knees in celebration, visibly sobbing.
