World number one Victoria Azarenka won the Olympic Games bronze medal in the women’s singles with a 6-3, 6-4 victory over Russian 14th seed Maria Kirilenko at Wimbledon on Saturday. It was a first Olympic medal for Belarus’s Azarenka, who celebrated by wrapping herself in her country’s red and green flag. The 23-year-old, beaten in the semi-finals by Serena Williams, could yet leave the All England Club with two medals as she is competing in the mixed doubles with compatriot Max Mirnyi. The pair were one set up on India’s Leander Paes and Sania Mirza before bad light forced their quarter-final to be suspended on Friday and the match will be played to a finish later on Saturday.
