Retired players must be queuing up to make a comeback. There is no real competition in the WTA anymore. No offense to Clijsters, but its amazing that a player coming back out of retirement is able to win a grand slam so soon. It was only her 2nd or 3rd tourny. This would never have happened on the men's side.
the crisp backhand was a connoisseur's delight, the athleticism on par with the best. she single handedly ended the williams' domination, exposing time & again the sour loser tag that befits serena . hope she does make tht comeback & makes it bwith a bigger bang than her compatriot. cant wait justine

A great idea. You might also like Rod Laver, Ken Rosewall, John Newcombe, and Roy Emerson to come back, and compete with Federer, Nadal, Murray, Djokovic and Del Potro
all these player retire quickly thinking they have made a lot of money .... when they cant live the same lavish lifestyle they come out of retirement... she wont stand a chance against the russians, serbs evas and ovas.
it is a great news. Henin is a class player 'female version of federer' Her style of play is unique esp her one handed backhand is so powerful. It is always a pleasure to watch her play

Henin coming back is good news..But she retired because of certain personal problems...If those have not yet been solved then there is no point in attempting a comeback.

Edberg wont stand a chance against the present Del Potro, Federer, Djokovic,... he was playing against weak players and hence was at the top for some time..

Have u checked his Head-to-head record against Pete Sampras, the greatest player of all time. It's 6-8
His record against Agassi is 3-6, and that against Lendl is 14-13.

Hey did u know Edberg smoked Sampras in 1992 U.S open final. Sampras was then a 21 yr old and former U.S open(1990) champion already. If he could do that to Sampras and The same Sampras can bt Federer(albeit in an exhibition match of late) one can safely bet he could have been a match for the current crop.

A champion in one era will always be a champion in another era. It's not Edberg's mistake that he was born 20 years earlier. If he were playing today, he would have found a way to defeat Fedex, Nadal, Del Potro, etc.
Past records say that Henin was way better than Clijsters just because Clijsters returned back and won a grand slam Henin wants to come back. Ha ha . The former No.1 is back to be on No.1

she was the one ended the dominance of William sisters along Devenport. it would be interesting to see her return. anyways in first place she took prematured retirement.
