MONTREAL -- A stunning climb in the world rankings and taking a set off the best female tennis player on the planet was reward enough for Eugenie Bouchards hard work in 2013. Now the native of Westmount, Que., is shooting for silverware. "I want to win a title (in 2014), thats for sure," said Bouchard, who surged to No. 32 in the WTA rankings this year from 144th. "Ill be happy with any title but the bigger the tournament is the better it will be. And my ultimate objective is a Grand Slam." Besides her lofty rise in the WTA standings, Bouchard defeated Ana Ivanovic -- then ranked world No. 12 -- in the second round of Wimbledon, forced Serena Williams to three sets in Cincinnati and was named WTA Newcomer of the Year. These accomplishments have earned Bouchard, who turns 20 in February, the Bobbie Rosenfeld Award as The Canadian Press female athlete of 2013. Bouchard received 45 per cent of ballots cast, finishing well ahead of snowboarder Dominique Maltais and speedskater Christine Nesbitt, who each had 11 per cent. "Its special," Bouchard said of the award, which is determined through balloting among sports editors and broadcasters across the country. "It just shows how much hard work Ive put in this year that Ive had good results. It makes me more proud of my year." Bouchard said her first full year on the tour allowed her to appreciate the differences from the junior circuit, where she starred in 2012 while winning the Wimbledon junior championship. "I feel like Ive had a lot of good experiences this year that will help me in the future," she said. "I got to play a lot of big matches on centre courts at Grand Slams like at the French Open and Wimbledon." Fellow tennis player Milos Raonic was voted The Canadian Press male athlete of the year on Thursday. Canadas team of the year will be revealed Saturday. A number of womens tennis players have won the Canadian Press honour over the years. Aleksandra Wozniak was the last to do so, taking the honour in 2009. Helen Kelesi and Carling Bassett are also former winners. Praise poured in for Bouchard from those who selected her for the Rosenfeld Award, originally awarded in 1933 and named for the Olympic champion and all-round athlete who was voted Canadas top female athlete for the first half of the 20th century. "Eugenie Bouchard is a name I think were going to be hearing a lot of in the future," said Montreal Gazette sports editor Stu Cowan. "Shes only going to get better and seems to have the game -- and the strength -- to make it into the top 10. Her name could be at the top of this list for years to come. A real breakout year from her." Pierre Champoux, news director at Radio-Canada.ca, suggested there doesnt seem to be much that can stop her from continuing her dramatic rise in the rankings. "How far will she go?" Champoux said. "Eugenie Bouchard opened the eyes of all Canadians with her dazzling progress among the best tennis players in the world." The expectations are high, but Bouchard says shes not going to let that get to her. "I put enough pressure on myself, so Im just going to focus on that and not worry about what other people think because thats out of my control," she said. "I really just want to focus on my tennis and, if I play well, if I perform well, then the results will come." Moses Woldu, sports director at Newcap TV (CKSA, CITL) in Lloydminster, Alta., put it succinctly for why he selected Bouchard. "Moving 100 spots in the tennis world rankings speaks for itself." Maltais, of Petite-Riviere-Saint-Francois, Que., enjoyed a stellar year of her own, winning the overall World Cup snowboard cross title and a world silver medal. That was enough for Bob Addison, sports anchor for Vancouver radio station CKNW. "Tough choice, but Maltais takes it as the overall World Cup champ," he said. Others who received votes included heptathlete Brianne Theisen-Eaton, paralympic swimmer Valerie GrandMaison, gymnast Rosie MacLennan, snowboarder Maelle Ricker, mixed martial artist Alexis Davis, freestyle skier Chloe Dufour-Lapointe, snowboarder Spencer OBrien and bobsledder Kaillie Humphries. Bouchard becomes the fourth tennis player to win the Bobbie Rosenfeld Award. Carling Bassett took it in 1983 and 1985, Helen Kelesi in 1989 and 1990 and Aleksandra Wozniak in 2009.

Following a free transfer from Real Madrid on Sunday, Milan announced on its website that the club reached a deal with the 2007 FIFA world player of the year early Monday. Financial terms were not disclosed but the Gazzetta dello Sport reported that it was a two-year deal worth (euro)4 million ($5.3 million) per season plus bonuses -- a significant drop from the (euro)10 million ($13.2 million) Kaka earned with Madrid. "Kaka made a big (sacrifice) to return here, showing a lot of affection for our shirt," Milan Vice-President Adriano Galliani said. The 31-year-old Kaka wants to play for Brazil at next years World Cup in his home country and should feature more at Milan. "Milan is ideal for me," Kaka told Milan Channel. "I always find great champions here. Before there was Pippo Inzaghi now theres (Mario) Balotelli. I hope to experience great joys with Mario. "I really want to play," Kaka added. "This is a special year for me because the World Cup is coming up but now Ive got to do well with Milan. I was very sorry to leave but now its even more special to come back." Elsewhere, a potential three-way swap involving forwards Fabio Quagliarellla of Juventus, Alberto Gilardino of Genoa and Marco Borriello of Roma fell through.dddddddddddd Although Juventus announced two deals with Serie A debutante Sassuolo. Midfielder Luca Marrone was sent to the promoted club in a (euro)9 million ($11.9 million) transfer but Juventus then purchased half of his rights. Forward Domenico Berardi, meanwhile, was acquired by Juventus for (euro)9 million ($11.9 million) but he will stay with Sassuolo on loan this season after his rights were also split between the two clubs. In another move, Inter Milan loaned midfielder Joel Obi to Parma. Kaka joined Madrid from Milan in 2009 for (euro)65 million ($92 million). But after injuring his left knee, he was never able to establish himself as a first-choice player in Spain. Kaka did not play in an official match with Madrid after the recent arrival of Carlo Ancelotti, who coached him during his best seasons at Milan. Kaka was the worlds top player when he led Milan to the Champions League title in 2007, when he also helped the Rossoneri win the UEFA Super Cup and Club World Cup. While he doesnt seem to be the player he once was, Kaka should still be an able replacement for Kevin-Prince Boateng, who transferred from Milan to Schalke last week. He could line up either in attack alongside Mario Balotelli or share playmaker duties with Riccardo Montolivo.
