Clijsters knocks out former No. 1 at windy US Open


NEW YORK - Kim Clijsters put a quick end to Ana Ivanovic's run at the U.S. Open, winning her 18th straight match at Flushing Meadows with a 6-2, 6-1 wipeout of the former world No.

After regaining an early break to pull to within 3-2 in the first, Ivanovic got overpowered, losing seven straight games to turn the match into a rout.

"In the beginning, you have to settle a bit, with the wind you have to adjust, especially with the serve," Clijsters said.
