Justine Henin-Harden has great one-handed backhand. She's really fun to watch. She's tiny, but she can pack a punch that's for sure.

From what I had heard of her, Justine had a very tough young life. I appreciate the way she plays the game extremely.

Women's tennis is so much more entertaining than men's these days.

Here is how they could make male tennis much more interesting to watch ........ although it will never happen.......... raise the net height two inches.......... that will slow down the serves.......... thusly more excellent and longer play........ but, it will never happen.

But, it's still 90 feet to first base in baseball. ;-)

Yoi, double yoi! Go Stillers.

Yes. I believe she is estranged from her father and her mother died of cancer a few years back. She raised her brother(s) on her own, at a young age and was married a couple years ago.

Women's tennis is far more entertaining than mens, IMHO. Mens don't have as good of rallies as women do. The points are usually over so quick.

I always like watching Gustavo "Guga" Kuerten(Brazil) play though. He was just fun to watch, especially on clay.
