Babos/Mladenovic clinch women's doubles title

Timea Babos and Kiki Mladenovic end Elena Vesnina and Ekaterina Makarova’s career Grand Slam bid, winning 6-4 6-3 to clinch their first major title as a team.

The French-Hungarian duo have beaten the world’s top two teams en route to this Australian Open crown. It’s Mladenovic’s second major women’s doubles title, after she won Roland Garros in 2016. 

The pair celebrate, and when they sit down on their bench to let the scale of their achievements sink in, the tears flow. It hasn't been the easiest times of late on the singles court for Mladenovic, so she'll enjoy this sweet moment. Fantastic scenes.
