Klara Zakopalova Tennis Pictures

In her career, Zakopalová has reached eight singles finals and won two, both in 2005: on grass in Rosmalen (Netherlands) and in September in Portorož (Slovenia) on hard court.

In January 2006, she played a comeback player Martina Hingis, at the WTA Tournament in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia, whom she lost to in the second round. Zakopalová was seeded No.29 at the 2006 Australian Open but lost in the first round to Ekaterina Bychkova of Russia. In that year, Klara had ten first-round losses in singles and failed to win a doubles match.

In 2008, Zakopalová reached the final of the inaugural Cachantun Cup in Chile. She played the top seed Flavia Pennetta but was forced to retire due to an ankle sprain. This also forced her to withdraw from the next tournament in Bogotá, where she had made the quarterfinals in 2007

Justine Henin Biography & Pictures

Justine Henin (born 1 June 1982), formerly known as Justine Henin-Hardenne (2002–2007),[citation needed] is a professional Belgian tennis player, currently ranked the World No. 16.

Henin has won 43 WTA singles titles and seven Grand Slam singles titles, including four French Open titles, one Australian Open title, and two US Open titles. She has also won the year-ending Sony Ericsson Championships twice and the singles gold medal at the 2004 Summer Olympics.

Tennis experts cite her mental toughness, the completeness and variety of her game, her footspeed and footwork, and her one-handed backhand (which John McEnroe has described as the best single-handed backhand in the women's or men's game[3]) as the principal reasons for her success.

Justine Henin New Pictures

Of the five titles on offer at this year’s Australian Open grand slam tennis tournament, Americans won over half of them: women’s singles, women’s doubles and men’s doubles.

Russians? They won exactly zero. Ouch.

Two Chinese female players made the semi-finals. As for the “dominant” Russians? None made it that far. Double ouch.

But the worst news for Russia didn’t come from the USA or China, it came from Belgium, in the person of Justine Henin.

Not only did the unranked, unseeded Henin lay waste to Russia’s best players (thrashing Dementieva, Kleybanova and Petrova with the greatest of ease) on her way to the finals, but in the finals she reminded the world what a really compelling grand slam tennis final looks like.

The world had forgotten, you see, since in Henin’s two-year absence from the sport, what a high-class grand slam final was like, a clash between not just two titanic talents but also two scintillating, compelling personalities. Svetlana Kuznetsova? Yawn. Nadia Petrova? Who? Elena Demenetieva? Uh, if you say so.

The world was reminded of what tennis used to be like before the Russians arrived. You know, exciting, something to look forward to.

Jurgen Melzer Tennis Pictures

Jürgen Melzer (born 22 May 1981 in Vienna) is an Austrian tennis player. He reached a career-high ranking of No. 16 on 7 June 2010, and a doubles ranking of No. 17 on 19 March 2007. He is a left-handed tennis player but is right-handed in day-to-day life.

In 1999, he won the boy's singles event at Wimbledon. However for many years he was known as one of the best players on the tour to have not progressed past the third round of a Grand Slam event. He ended this streak when he reached the semi-finals of the French Open in 2010.

Argentine tennis player Juan Martin Del Potro still can’t believe he has won this US Open, but now believes he is the biggest new star in tennis.

“It”s my best sensation,” he said. “Since my childhood I have dreamed of this trophy. I have realised my dream. It is an incredible moment. It”s amazing match, amazing people. Everything is perfect. Maybe tomorrow, maybe next week I will be believing in this. Now, I can”t believe it,” The Mirror quoted Del Potro, as saying.

The 6 ft 6in Argentine caused a massive upset by beating a fustered Roger Federer in five thrilling sets in the US Open final.

The world No.1, the reigning French Open and Wimbledon champion, was seeking his sixth successive title after winning 40 consecutive matches at Flushing Meadows.
