Great article about the lost generation in women's tennis. One thing in common with most of these girls(excluding Nicole) is that they retired because of injury, more specifically, the back. Sad to see their careers' ending and even sadder to think of what they could have accomplised post 2008, after Henin's retirement. Maybe it is best that today girls are taking more time before turning pro to avoid burn out and career ending injuries.
