Third time lucky for Li who makes funny speech at cup presentation

Li Na won her first Australian Open title at the third time of asking with victory over surprise finalist Dominika Cibulkova and entertained the Melbourne crowds afterwards with her speech.

Li, the beaten finalist in 2011 and 2013 in Melbourne, edged a nervous first set on a tie-break but was imperious in the second as she eased to a 7-6 (7/3) 6-0 win.
