My all time favourite female tennis player. Her backhand is just a treat to watch. Legend.
What an incredible sportswoman Justin is! She is one player I idolised in my youth because of her work ethics and conduct on and off the court. It's unfortunate that her career ended abruptly by injuries, which is the saddest part about sports.
I miss Justine. She was my favourite player, such a hard worker
i miss so much justin henin untill now, my favorite tennis player

Me too
Justine should is a role model for small sized women in the game. I mean look at her, seven grand slams and in almost all the finals she played her opponents were much bigger than her. But it's her talent that spoke.
What an amazing athlete. Not the tallest, not the strongest, not the fastest, but most definitely the smartest player. The most technically sound and smart player on tour. That backhand is still the holy grail of backhands till this day on the women’s tour.

She was one of the quickest and fastest. Although not monstrously towering and powerful. She had enough skill and agility. Ask Tracy Austin.

She interestingly still had a good amount of power
Please Justine, come back!
She was always on my prediction list to win a grand slams every year atleast 2 or 3. She should make a come back again in 2021😭
Missing her! One of the best!
Sometimes just wonder how many more great matches she could have been part of... she was one of the kind...
She is respected, for her complete tennis, especially the signature of her 1 handed backhand, serve, tenacious forehand, drop shot, volley, smash, court coverage. She's a miracle of tennis especually in 2007.. hope she stay healthy & happy
Well i miss you Justinne...we miss you 🌹🧡
You are loved for your brilliance.
She's been intelligent to say 'szop' - 'I want a life beyond first rank tennis.' And right she was - She has beaten all the 'idols' of women tennis, won the olympics BTW, and NOBODY thought such a frail looking person could do that. Well she did. I would call it more than 'against all odds' in women's tennis. Kudos and much love for a early admirer. 💕
Aww I miss her. I still play with her racquet!

@ferzy09 not only that but they slowed down the courts in Wimbledon so much so it was easier for defensive players to play better in recent years
She'd still be my favorite if she was still playing (tho I'd also want Serena to get that #24).
I always thought Henin wouldve played with the pro staff in modern tennis, turn out she prefers the Blade
She could won many more grand slams, but she retired for her personal reason. She's fed woman, everybody know that
Never will a player 5'5" achieve what she did in tennis. She is my favorite TENNIS PLAYER of all time. Fed 2nd, Nadal 3rd, Hingis 4th.

I don't know about Hingis (although I'm Swiss - I never was a Hingis fan myself I always cheared for Patty Schnyder)! I would add Henin's idol Steffi Graf to the list and would exchange Nadal with Björn Borg! (I'm just that old school!) Technically Federer was even better than Justine! But I wouldn't mix men and women ... 😇
Pound for pound, best female tennis player ever 🤘🏻

Raising my hand to this interview. Cheater. Lied to umpire. Crowd was complicit. Not a professional.
Definitely the 2nd best player after Serena in the 2000s

@@seanjenkins331 that's probably becos the Williams brought a whole new level to the women's game with power. Without power, they might not hv successes against Henin, Clijsters, Mauresmo etc. When the others trained n prepared to counter the power, they could beat the Williams. This shows talent n skills can beat power

@@seanjenkins331 that's becos they needed time to improve to deal with the power, and meanwhile Serena is dominating. Mentally i oso believe ppl were intimidated n showed too much respect for her. Once someone shows that Serena can be beaten, more n more players hv that belief that she can be beaten n they started to beat serena.
