Fortunately for the fans, Henin returns. Clijsters, having just returned probably made the best choice in her career. The tennis scene in 2010 will be more exciting and varied as the young guns do battle against the 'old guards' to emerge as a force to reckon with. Henin, Clijsters, the Williams sisters and in some way, Sharapova and Kusnetsova stood the test of time, surviving alongside run-of-the-mill teenagers eager to conquer the sport. Their secret? Motivation and talent!
While moving into 2010, we should look back at 2009, a year where some of the old guards called it a day. Marat Safin, Santoro, Mauresmou hung up their rackets. Between them, they won 4 slams and millions of fans all over the world during their illustrious careers. They will be missed for their talent, charisma and shot-making skills. It's a pity both Safin and Mauresmou are retiring at a 'tender' age of 29 and 30 respectively. Hopefully, they can stage a comeback in the near future where their returns will be meaningful.
Today would have been my granny's 90th bday. Still missing her after more than 2 years.
