Justine Henin in French Open News
Posted by HomeBiz on 05/23/08 in Sports
The defending women’s singles champ, Justine Henin, has been in the French Open news lately. She missed the Australian Open because of the divorce. But she vows to defend her title and set the new record for most consecutive wins in women’s singles since the open era. Henin has even seemed more appealing to tennis fans from around the world. The French Open scores should be on her side once again.
She normally seems cold and robotic but since the news broke last year about her divorce, and the devastation it was having on her, fans seemed to line up in support of her. But even with all of that she was still able to get through the tournament and win. Some say it was the best tennis of her life.
She does so well on the clay court because the material slows the ball down and it produces a high bounce compared to grass and hard courts. This hurts some players who play the running game. Henin however plays with skill and athleticism. I’m guessing that the French Open tennis news coverage will be about her skill—not her divorce.
