MELBOURNE (Reuters) – Kim Clijsters drew on her huge wealth of experience to ride out a Li Na storm and claim her maiden Australian Open title yesterday by shattering China’s dream of a first grand slam champion. The Belgian battled back after dropping the first set to beat Li 3-6 6-3 6-3 in an intense final and win her fourth major title, her third since her return from retirement and a first outside the U.S. Open.
