    Fed Cup: Serena Williams leads US past Belarus

    WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) — Serena Williams rallied to beat Anastasiya Yakimova 5-7, 6-1, 6-1 on Sunday, giving the United States a 3-0 lead against Belarus that locked up a spot in a Fed Cup playoff in April.

    Williams' victory clinched the round for the Americans with two matches still to go. There was another singles match before Venus Williams' scheduled return in doubles.

    Serena Williams led 4-1 in the first set before Yakimova stormed back to the take the lead. But Williams cruised through the last two sets to get the win.

    Belarus' Victoria Azarenka, the top-ranked player in the world, sat out all four singles matches with a back injury.

    The Americans were bounced out of the Fed Cup top tier last year, but will have a chance to play their way back in during the April playoff.

      @ Barry,
      I don't know you nor Sasquatch for that matter. But, why would you say that? From stories told, the legend of Sasquatch is of course one of mystery. Most of the country has never seen the alleged being/animal. Sasquatch is always in hiding, has no clothing, plays no tennis, has no money, can not talk, does not smile, and never gives an interview...so, like you, I know very little of Sasquatch. I can surmise from stories/legends told that this American Icon, Serena Williams, is far from a hairy creature which hides from the spotlight and wears no tennis shoes. Do you personally know a Sasquatch, or Serena Williams for that matter? Maybe you do. Maybe I am blowing your comment out of proportion. Whatever the case, have a great American day as you rejoice in the knowledge that Serena has help keep the country in contention for Fed Cup playoff win in April. I am sure Sasquatch could have done a better, but again, I don't know a Sasquatch.

      Way to go, Serena. Nothing like a strong, sexy woman.
