Ana Ivanovic celebrated her qualification for the Sony Ericsson Championships with victory in the final of the Fortis Championships in Luxembourg today.

Just one day after becoming the fourth player to qualify for the season-ending event in Spain in November, the second-seeded Serbian rallied for a 3-6 6-4 6-4 victory over fourth seed Daniela Hantuchova.

It was the third title of the year and fifth of her career for Ivanovic, who won at Berlin and Los Angeles. She also reached her first grand slam final at the French Open.
