Venus Williams went one better than last year as she won the ASB Classic with victory over Caroline Wozniacki.
The American lost to Ana Ivanovic in last year's Auckland final but would not be denied this time around as she fought back to triumph 2-6 6-3 6-3 against her Danish opponent.
Wozniacki secured two early breaks to move into a 4-1 lead in the first set and closed it out in 31 minutes as she looked to be in control.
Wozniacki also broke in the first game of the next but Williams took the next four and took the match to a decider.
And with the momentum now with the world number 19, Williams claimed two breaks of serve in the final set to claim her 46th career WTA title.
