China's Li Na beat World Number 1 Victoria Azarenka Saturday 10-6 in a play-off after the pair shared a set each in a see-sawing invitation match in the Thai resort of Hua Hin. Li, who became China's first superstar tennis player after winning the 2011
French Open, took the first set 3-6, dominating the World Number One Azarenka on the hard court with her serving and groundstrokes. Azarenka sprung to life as the hot Thai sun faded and the flood lights came on, belting a series of winners as she claimed the second set at a canter 6-2.
