Sania Mirza [ Images ] is eyeing her second WTA doubles tennis title in as many weeks after advancing to the final of US $200,000 Istanbul Cup in Istanbul on Friday.

The Indian ace and her new partner Yung-Jan Chan of Taipei overcame stiff resistance from Mervana Jugic-Salkic of Bosnia and Italy's [ Images ] Romina Oprandi before winning their semi-final match 6-7 (3/7), 6-0, 10-5.

Sania and Yung-Jan were leading 5-1 in the opening set after breaking their opponents in the first game of the match but squandered the advantage and allowed Mervana and Romina to level scores at 5-5 and win the set via the tie-breaker.

But it was a completely different story in the second set, which top seeded Sania and Yung-Jan dominated to take the match into the Super tie-breaker, which they won to clinch the match.

Sania won her fourth WTA doubles title at the Morocco Open at Fes, Morocco, partnering Vania King [ Images ] of the United States last week. She lost in the first round of the singles event in Istanbul to Meghann Shaughnessy
