You can follow the real time game. You can try for AU Open man final tomorrow.
22:05 Clijsters v Li - post-match Clijsters thanks Tennis Australia for a well-organised tournament. Thanks her uncle for wearing the ugliest green pants, which bring her luck. Thanks her coach Wim, the player she grew up trying to beat, for helping her live her dreams. Thanks her fitness trainer Sam - the person she swears at most. And thanks her husband Brian saying: "he gets a little shy". To wrap things up she says: "Finally I feel like you guys can call me Aussie Kim because I won the title". Another top speech.
21:52 Clijsters v Li - post-match Li has been declared a national hero in China today. A thoroughly well deserved honour. In another fantastic speak, Li tells her husband that although she makes fun of him, "you can be fat or thin, ugly or handsome, I will always follow you and I will always love you".
21:43 Game, set, match & championship Clijsters 3-6 6-3 6-3 Clijsters hits her best forehands of the match tonight to win the opening two points on serve. Then she whips up a magnificent backhand to force a Li backhand error for three championship points. She needs just one, Li steering a backhand wide. Clijsters raises her hands to the sky and bursts into tears. She has her fourth Grand Slam title in the bag.
21:42 Second set - Clijsters 5-3 Li enjoys an easy service game for the first time in a long time. Moves to 40-15, then game as Clijsters scoops a short backhand well long of the baseline.
21:38 Second set - Clijsters 5-2 All those frittered away opportunities and dropped service games of the first set are long forgotten as Clijsters holds serve and moves within a game of taking the Australian Open 2011 women's singles title.
