Veteran Martina Navratilova won the 57th Grand Slam title of her career at the Australian Open today, partnering Leander Paes to victory in the mixed doubles.
Navratilova becomes the oldest woman to win a top-level event at the age of 46 years and three months.
She and doubles expert Paes defeated Todd Woodbridge of Australia and Greek Eleni Daniilidou 6-4 7-5.
The Australian Open mixed doubles title was the only Grand Slam title to have previously eluded Navratilova in a career which began in 1973.
