Serena Williams ended a three-year title drought and donated her entire winner's cheque to victims of the Australian bushfires in an emotional WTA Auckland Classic final on Sunday.

...

"I've been playing in Australia for over 20 years and it's been really hard for me to watch all the news and everything that has been happening in Australia with all the fire and... animals and people that have lost their homes," she said.

"I decided at the beginning of the tournament... I'd donate all my prize money for a great cause."

1. Good for her. I think she won her 1st championship after having her child?

I'll bet that is more important to her.
