Clijsters injury could be worse than expected

BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) -- Kim Clijsters could miss up to six weeks because of a torn tendon in her left wrist.
The injury was first diagnosed as a stress reaction, but Clijsters said Tuesday on her Web site that the tendon in her left wrist had a tear of a little more than half an inch.
``I am not allowed to move my wrist for 10 days,'' she said. ``At that stage a further diagnosis will be made, and if it is negative, it would mean up to three more weeks of full rest.
Clijsters has had her left hand in a brace since Sunday and the injury, which forced her out of the Indian Wells tournament, could keep her off the circuit until May, she said Tuesday.
``Then it would be tough to get in top shape for the Fed Cup,'' she said. Belgium hosts Croatia in Clijsters' hometown of Bree on April 24-25.
One week earlier, she was supposed to play against her fiance, Lleyton Hewitt.
``It would be too bad because I was in great shape,'' she said.
Clijsters won back-to-back tournaments in Paris and Antwerp before her second injury of the season.
Clijsters, ranked No. 2 behind fellow Belgian Justine Henin-Hardenne at Indian Wells, hurt her left wrist in a 6-1, 6-3 victory over Angelika Roesch on Friday.
She couldn't recall how she hurt herself, but said the pain began late in her match against Roesch.
Even though she's right-handed, Clijsters has a fearsome double-fisted backhand, making it impossible to play with an injured left hand.
