Dulko, Pennetta win Australian Open women's doubles title


MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) - The top-ranked women's doubles team was down but not quite out in the Australian Open final Friday.

Gisela Dulko of Argentina and Italian Flavia Pennetta rallied from a set and 4-1 down to beat Victoria Azarenka and Maria Kirilenko 2-6, 7-5, 6-1 - the first Grand Slam title for the Dulko-Pennetta combination, who made it to the quarterfinals at all the Grand Slams last year and the Wimbledon semifinals.
