Serena defeated Samantha Stosur 6-4 6-2 to win her 39th career title and her 2nd in 3 weeks following her 49-week absence from the sport following her 13th major title win at the 2010 Wimbledon Championships. She was unseeded in Toronto because she was ranked #80 in the world, and is projected to be World #31 on Monday. The US Open, the last major of the year, begins in two weeks.
Djokovic is having a season for the ages. He won his 9th title by beating Mardy Fish 6-2 3-6 6-4 and has lost only once (to Roger Federer) in 54 matches, an incredible record of 53-1 for the year (and he should really get credit for a walk-over versus Fabio Fognini in Paris). Fish did well to win a set off of the Serbian, which just goes to show well the American is playing, having reached his 3rd consecutive final in the North American hardcourt summer season.
