Justine Henin-Hardenne

(BEL) "The Comeback Kid"

THE LOWDOWN:
Sidelined for the majority of '04, the Belgian still won five of the nine events she entered, including the Aussie Open and the Olympics. This past spring, she earned three straight titles. The '03 US Open champ is always a hard-court force. "The Comeback Kid" earned her moniker with a gutsy three-hour comeback win over Jennifer Capariati in the '03 US open Semis. Never count her out.
