Serna beats qualifer in straight sets

OEIRAS, Portugal -- Magui Serna of Spain beat qualifier
Julia Schruff of Germany 6-4, 6-1 in a rain-interrupted final
Sunday to win her second straight Estoril Open.

Nikolay Davydenko of Russia won the men's title by defeating
Agustin Calleri of Argentina 6-4, 6-3. It's Davydenko's second
championship of 2003; he won at Adelaide, Australia, in January.

Serna needed just 69 minutes to become the first woman to defend
her title at this clay-court event. She didn't lose a set all week.

Schruff's run through qualifying and then the main draw will
push her WTA Tour ranking from 235th to around 160th.
