Justine Henin Retires From Tennis (it's a sport apparently)

The top ranked female tennis player in the world, Justine Henin, retired from tennis today at the age of just 25:
She said she felt it was the end of the road and that her body didn't heal as well as when she was younger.
Fair enough.

Here's a little information about what Justine has accomplished in her few short years on planet earth:
Henin captured every major tennis event, with the exception of Wimbledon. She even helped tiny Belgium win its first and only Fed Cup title back in 2001 and was a two-time winner of the prestigious year-end Tour Championships.

"Pound for pound Justine is the greatest player of her generation," said WTA Tour founder and tennis legend Billie Jean King.
I think the most amazing thing about all this, the thing that is so incredible, so astonishing, is the fact that I have never heard of this pug-faced little troll.

Colour me wondrous
