Martina Hingis declared herself worthy of her No. 1 ranking in women's tennis after surviving a 2-hour 21-minute match Sunday to win Chase Championships' last appearance at New York.

Martina Hingis won her first doubles title in seven years when she and Sabine Lisicki defeated Ekaterina Makarova and Elena Vesnina 4-6, 6-4, 10-5 Sunday at the Sony Open.
