Wimbledon - Henin looks to complete collection
Eurosport - Tue, 12 Jun 19:02:00 2007
Wimbledon - Fresh off of her third successive French Open triumph, Justine
Henin says she wants to complete her grand slam collection with a victory at
Wimbledon next month.
"Wimbledon remains a very important goal for me," said the Belgian world
number one. "It wouldn't be the end for me in a tennis sense if I never won
it, but it would be a great achievement in my career."
Henin, who has won four times at Roland Garros in addition to her Australian
Open and US Open titles, described Wimbledon as special because it was where
she reached her first grand slam final in 2001.
"The grounds at Wimbledon are so beautiful the most beautiful site out of all
the Grand Slams, I think. It's all about the traditions of the place," the
25-year-old Henin said.
"All the players love to come to Wimbledon. They are more relaxed there than
at other Slams. That makes it special."
Henin is a twice finallist at the All-England Club, losing to Venus Williams
in 2001 and last year to France's Amelie Mauresmo.
"It doesn't bother me that I haven't won it yet, but it makes it a challenge
and that's great. I need challenges."
Still, after reaching all four grand slam finals last year and winning only
the French Open, a back-to-back slam victory appears daunting but Henin is
confident.
"It's tough to pull off the double going from Roland Garros to Wimbledon but
last year I was just a set away. Two Slams in a month that's tiring and a lot
of pressure, but I think I could do it."
"As a little girl I dreamed of winning just one Slam title. Now Wimbledon is
the only one I don't have. If I can do it, it would be great."
