Henin as dominant as Federer
By James Beck (Contact) The Post and Courier Wednesday, October 10, 2007
Everyone talks about Roger Federer's domination of men's tennis. But check
out Justine Henin on the women's side.
Henin appears to be in complete charge of the WTA Tour. This mighty mite
looks unbeatable. Even the Williams sisters must be shaking their heads after
the way Henin marched through them en route to another U.S. Open crown.
Henin didn't play the Australian Open, yet she won two Grand Slams this year,
and has gone 54-4 in singles and won eight titles. A year ago, she was
Federer-like, making all four Grand Slam finals. Wimbledon's grass just seems
to be her only hangup, something like the clay at Roland Garros for Federer.
But, while Federer is breathing on the Grand Slam record book, the women's
record, however, is totally out of Henin's reach. She's already 25 years old.
That's still young, a year younger than Federer, but she has five fewer Grand
Slam titles than his 12. Chris Evert won 16 Grand Slam singles titles as a
teenager.
The big stumbling block for Henin is that she's only slightly better than
one-fourth of the way to reaching Margaret Smith Court's record 24 Grand Slam
singles titles. Steffi Graf gave up at No. 22. Martina Navratilova and Evert
won 18 each.
