Venus Williams brushed aside Monica Seles in the final of the Acura Classic for the second consecutive year on Sunday night.

The number two seed produced near flawless tennis in San Diego to record a 6-2 6-3 victory and retain her 100record over the former world number one.

Williams took just 68 minutes to complete her sixth win over Seles, slamming 37 winners and 13 aces.

The Wimbledon champion double-faulted four times in the first game but, after saving three break-points, she never looked back.

Williams said: "I played well and I was able to play the big points better.

"That's what I always like to do, especially going into another grand slam soon. I know Seles didn't play her best today."

Seles, who was playing in only her second tournament since injuring her right foot in May, said: "My serve kind of went haywire today and I felt that was the key to the match."
