Maria 2006 against the best one-handed backhand so far. And ...that dress, just Heaven

[@raphaelarnaud8366]

So, it was my most difficult choice between my 2 favourite tennis female players at this timel Maria was so beautifull and hanger, but sweet Justine was so ingeneous with such a talent..

[@ascendantrocket]

So many great moments: Serena’s three peat, Clijsters’ comeback win, breakthroughs for Stephens and Pennetta, and rise of the next gen Osaka, Andreescu, and Raducanu. Looking forward to the story of 2022.

[@emoneyso]

I was shocked when I saw Justine’s one handed backhand. She looked like federer on the court. Made me realize that hardly any female tennis player uses it. Insane

[@teoc8124]

It is a joy to watching Justine Henin play. Her one handed backhand is fantastic, and such a smart tactician, she very rarely would chose the wrong shot during a rally.

[@joellahrman4557]

Yes I was not really a fan of hers but her backhand is the standard for one-handers as far as I'm concerned. Obviously not a lot of competition on either tour these days for one-handers but hers was flawless.

We need to see more of that, I want American tennis to come back to the greatness it once achieved for both men and women😂🤩 I also remember 2018 and 2020. I remember feeling ashamed of my own country for how they booed and destroyed poor Naomi’s crowning moment, and feeling sad for her two years later to see Naomi win again without a crowd even there at all, congratulating or booing🤦🏻‍♂️
