Henin, Clijsters' withdrawal leaves Wimbledon short on talent
Thursday, 10 June 2004

The absence of world No1 Justine Henin-Hardenne and Kim Clijsters from Wimbledon this month will leave a gaping hole in the women's draw for a fourth successive Grand Slam.

The Belgian walked away with the US and Australian Open trophies, beating compatriot Clijsters in both finals, and climbed to the top of the world rankings.

Before arriving in Paris to defend her French Open crown, Henin-Hardenne had not played a tournament since early April due to a viral infection.

Question marks over the triple Grand Slam champion's health were raised when she was knocked out in the second round of the French Open last month and yesterday she announced she would be skipping Wimbledon.

"My physicians have given me strict orders that several more weeks of rest are necessary to ensure a full recovery," she said.

Chronic tendonitis in Clijsters' left wrist meant the Belgian was confined to the stands at Roland Garros to cheer on her fiance Lleyton Hewitt.

The world No2 is set to have surgery to remove a cyst on the wrist and could also miss the US Open, starting on August 30.

"This is not really a great birthday ... I have to be operated on on that cyst, that is a fact now," said Clijsters, who turned 21 yesterday.

"I want to have the operation as quickly as possible but there are some tests that still have to be carried out."

Clijsters has not played competitively since pulling out of the German Open on May 6.

Safina Retires
Written by Kate Battersby
June 24, 2004

A sobbing Dinara Safina followed her older brother's unhappy example with a first round exit from Wimbledon today. The Russian 29th seed retired from The Championships when trailing the Spanish clay court specialist Arantxa Parra Santonja 0-6, 0-2.

Conversely it was Parra Santonja who appeared nervous at the outset, having to dive off the court for a lavatory break before the match so much as began. But once the business of the day was underway any such nerves must have been replaced by utter bemusement, as the crowd on Court Three witnessed one of the worst displays of Safina's recent career.

Only when eight games of the match had passed without the Russian notching up a single one of them was any explanation forthcoming. The trainer was called to a tearful Safina, and after a brief exchange umpire Fiona Edwards announced to the crowd that the match was over.

The precise cause of Safina's inability to continue was not immediately clear. But for the 35 minutes that the match lasted there was no doubt that this was not going to be her day. Given that Parra Santonja was successfully delivering fewer than half her first serves, the score-line looked increasingly bizarre.

Moreover, it is not as if the 21-year-old Spaniard has been rocketing up the rankings of late and hence might have been regarded as a dangerous floater. Her ranking has been becalmed in the 60s since this time last year. It is Safina - still only just 18 - who has steadily improved and was seeded at Wimbledon this year for the first time.
