Spanish high in Women's doubles

Anabel Medina Garrigues and Virginia Ruano Pascual successfully defended their French Open women's doubles title.

2009 French Open - Day Thirteen

The third seeds, who beat Casey Dellacqua and Francesca Schiavone at the same stage 12 months ago, dropped just two games as they hammered 12th seeds Victoria Azarenka and Elena Vesnina 6-1 6-1.

Spaniards Medina Garrigues and Ruano Pascual converted five of the 14 break points they created in a one-sided final, with their Belarussian and Russian opponents failing to secure even a solitary break of serve.

The victory brought a sixth doubles title for Ruano Pascual at Roland Garros having won this event four times with Argentine Paola Suarez before teaming up so successfully with her countrywoman.
