Henin is BACK!!!!!!!!!

[lambielspins]

Yeah, holding up a hand is so much worse than threatening the life of a lineswoman.

That was an isolated incident. Serena has never done anything close to that before. In fairness to her she has gotten some consistently crummy treatment from the officials there. The bogus overrule in that Capriati quarterfinal a number of years back and she kept her cool through that. It was probably the cumulation of alot of events at the Open that led to the outburst.

wow great news! justine is the only reason i watch tennis! hope she builds herself to a good form, not expecting it to be fast, just hope steady! yes!

 

[bladepdb]

And She's Black.

 

[gocard]

Yahooo!!! I'm thrilled to hear this news. Hope she can stay injury-free. Now I'll start following women's tennis again. Thank you Justine!

 

[justafa]

Henin is back!!!!!
She will play at least 4 more years and will play the olympics in 2012

This is just wonderful news for womens tennis. Nothing more to be added here. Just what the doctor ordered for this ailing patient that is WTA.

There goes Safina's hope of winning a slam.

I hate Henin but THIS ^^^ is so true!

 

[aviramdj]

Give you a break? Why? Because your beloved Justine has worse sportsmanship than Serena?

serena doesnt use drugs . here is the break u needed .
you will see how henin is pathetic without drugs,
she is a loser, when she see's her stuff isnt working she runs off the court not finishing the match, remember the final against mauresmo ?

she is a small rat .

 

[aviramdj]

I am sure that she eventually will get caught like hingis, another rat .

There goes Safina's hope of winning a slam.

There goes Safina's hope of winning a slam.

Who????

 

[OJ ROD]

I don't like Henin. But I like when she humbles Serena without a doupt.

Back and with a new serve at the AO.

CAn't wait for the AO !!

She’ll return in January ahead of the Australian Open, complete with a new serve in her quest for a Wimbledon title. It’s the only Grand Slam she didn’t win in a 10-year career that produced nearly $20 million in earnings.
Henin’s goal is to achieve 70-percent success on her first serves. That improvement, along with her daunting whip backhand, will have opponents scrambling.
“We said that perhaps, one day, we will get there,” Henin said Wednesday at a news conference, a day after announcing her comeback. “I am not (tall), so technically it has to be perfect.”

She never had a hope.

Some people love setting themselves up...

 

[pmerk34]

I was so hoping she would not come back. She is just an awful person on the court. She cheats like there is no tomorrow. Gets coached from bleachers and uses the injury timeout rule to disrupt the flow of a match.

Ditto she's another annoying diva.

Like when you said that Clijsters would need a genie to win any slams during her comeback....?

Pound for Pound Henin is one of the most talented players to ever play the game.

Hopefully she will dominate womens tennis again.

If pound for pound Henin is one of the most talented players to ever play the game, what is Serena pound for pound? :wink:

(Sorry, I just couldn't resist with that setup.)
