Henin Works Out to Win
Henin Works Out to Win
Saturday, June 28, 2003
Given the hand injury she sustained at a tournament in the Netherlands last
weekend, Justine Henin-Hardenne probably does not want any early-round
workouts. But she had her third in a row today, pushed to two tight sets by
the Australian Alicia Molik.
Henin-Hardenne, the No. 3 seed, defeated Molik 6-4, 6-4 - the scoreline
reflecting that the Belgian always had the better of her opponent, but also
that it was not simple.
The tall Australian was not disgraced, serving well and trying to get to the
net where possible and practical. But Henin-Hardenne's ripping groundstrokes
off both sides made it difficult for Molik to assert control of the rallies.
Henin-Hardenne's left hand remains taped, but it did not seem to bother her
during today's third-round match. The French Open Champion plays a former
winner at Roland Garros, Mary Pierce, in the next round.
