Henin-Hardenne is Back to Training
Ah, the Australian Open Finals. What a crummy way to win a Grand Slam title. I set my alarm at 3am so I could watch two of my favorite players go head-to-head or racquet-to-racquet or whatever you want to call it. Alas, it was likely one of the most boring matches I’ve ever seen in my life. Henin-Hardenne quit in the second set after illness made her unable to continue. Mauresmo then won her long-awaited Grand Slam title by default.
And now, while Mauresmo is off winning at the Paris Open, Henin-Hardenne battles the realities of bad health. Currently, she’s back in training and hopes to return to the courts on February 20th at the Dubai WTA tournament.
The Belgian former world No 1 said that she had been suffering from a shoulder injury and stomach inflammation brought on by taking drugs to combat the pain in her shoulder.
“It was really tough to have finished like that,” Henin-Hardenne said on her own website.
“I have tendinitis in a shoulder and I have never had such stomach pain as that. But if I hadn’t taken the anti-inflammatories I would never have made it so far in the tournament.”
Hopefully Henin-Hardenne will be back in full health soon. I love watching her play when she’s at her best.
