I only saw photos of Henin but it was good seeing her movement in the ones I saw. I guess I enjoy seeing her again and will enjoy her being the mix once again. I think that Henin, Mauresmo and Dementieva are my favorites. There are a couple of others but I think those are my top-especially Henin.

Regarding the rankings-I have been upset about Chakvetsade. I enjoyed her in the past and wish she was able to keep on going. Any injury involved or did she start going downhill after the terrible home break-in she experience?

As far as I know--the latter.
