Former Australian Captain May 08, 2008
WORLD No.1 Justine Henin has been dumped out of the German Open, losing 5-7, 6-3, 6-1 to 13th seed Dinara Safina of Russia in the third round.
The Belgian top seed had won all five previous meetings against the powerful Safina, sister of former men’s world No.1Marat Safin, but was broken eight times on the clay at the Steffi Graf stadium and looked well short of her best.
Henin, a three-time
winner in Berlin and four-time French Open champion, was playing a tournament on her favourite clay surface for the first time this year.
