Memories of a champion w/ Justine Henin | Roland-Garros

[@Pakos-Terimos]

Bravo, respect à vie, et Merci pour tous ces bons moments. Justine Henin 👽

[@specialjeffreyke]

Perfect technique and best backhand in the game.

[@DVDKC]

By far, i can't understand why people still compare her backhand with male backhand, especially Federer... her backhand was totally different and by far more efficient, like Wawrinka backhand.

[@tdtdtd1826]

What a lovely backhand and so effortless.great champ

[@aemiliadelroba4022]

❤❤❤ Wow 🤩 Such a beautiful champion 😊 ❤❤❤

[@jorgerodriguez.91]

Como la extraño. Era una placer verla a ella jugando al tenis. La clase que tenía..

[@rajusaha855]

Best female clay courts player of 21st century. After Graf's retirement it was Henin who kept me interest in WTA.

[@maciejgudel2939]

A True Icon ☝️😮🙄

Une joueuse d’une humilité indéniable, magnifiques souvenirs 👏🏻🙏🏻✌🏼🇧🇪

Un revers qui ma fait rever quand j etais petit en regardant rolland garros ❤❤

[@MegaRainsuper]

My number one tennis player in the world. Love you a whole bunch. I hope you can inspire more to learn the one handed backhand

[@chrisv2380]

Merci juju c’était magnifique ❤

[@deedledave9826]

It's nice to see her acknowledge Graf and the influence she had on her.

[@preeteshsrivastava6764]

Thank you Justine!! You are very special!!

[@remivinchon5690]

Quel beau jeu! Graff, Hingis, Henin, Mauresmo, Sabatini.... ce jeu varié et construit manque cruellement au tennis féminin moderne!

[@Yvagne]

L'une de plus grands athlètes du monde que je paie le respecte. Sa concentration dans son metier n'était ciblé qu'au sport de Tennis. Et à cet effet qu'elle a monté son rang mondial jusqu'au numéro un et de maintenir ce niveau durant des plusieurs années. Son style de jeux est le top. Une vraie championne. ❤💐

[@popartlife4822]

there is one and only JUSTINE ❤

[@karanoberoi9573]

One of the best techniques of all time... If not for her height which limited her serve a lot, she would've been one of the 🐐 for sure!

[@Zedem0n]

I would say she is one of the goats of women tennis. Ofcourse she could've had many more titles were it not for a few hiccups and it would help her case but when Henin was playing at her peak she was simply unstoppable. For a woman of her stature compared to the Sharapova's, Clijsters, Williams that were all competing as well, it speaks volume to her ability and technique.

[@foucaultpascal8799]

J ai vue dans le stade la finale de 2003 ❤❤🎉

[@willybeama1]

She admits and regrets her mistakes. Especially with Serena, I remember she apologized to Serena after the French Open and Serena accepted. She wasn’t a perfect competitor but at least she admitted her mistakes. Don’t forget that Serena, Mauresmo and others have admitted to their own mistakes as well. They are all human and have let their emotions cloud their judgement just like like the rest of us occasionally. Her skill was incredibly high and she deserves her flowers just like other great players

[@danielyung481]

Pour moi Justine reste la meilleure joueuse de tennis de tout les temps elle avait une élégance dans son jeu Un revers à une main splendide elle était super une grande championne

[@armeniandiaspora2914]

Allez Ju-Ju! The best all around player I have ever seen in women's tennis. The best backhand in women's tennis history. Her physical style has never existed in women's tennis; she is the RF of the ladies' matches. If she was slightly bigger and stronger, she could have been quite possibly the greatest ever!

[@marcuslerret6842]

The greatest backhand shot in tenis along with Federer

[@nicolasramossalcedo9176]

Wonderfull Justin 😍😍🎾🎾

[@ketevanjananashvili7111]

💛💫

[@starsystem2000]

Elle fait partie de l'age d'or du tennis féminin avec les soeurs Williams , Clijsters , Mauresmo , Sharapova ,Davenport , etc...

[@mustafa_sakalli]

Female Federer, his backhand is one of the beautiful in history, including mans. Iga resembles to her a little bit that's why she is my favourite nowadays

[@Pakos-Terimos]

Same. Iga is faster 100% and réactive, but Justin was so Complete + extraordinary backhand as you said. Both plays with heart and it's the most important to me. and if you have some talent, what else ? Lol 👍

[@tinob9861]

👏👏👏👏💪💪🇪🇸🇪🇸

[@CJ-dp2pe]

At her peak she was better than Serena, no-one can convince me otherwise.

[@rajusaha855]

Absolutely, from 2003-07 she dominate Serena with 5-2 h2h.

[@Pakos-Terimos]

i love u from Belgium 👍

[@paules3437]

I was blown away the first time I saw the French expression for "Grand Slam": Grand Chelem. "Chelem" looks like a Hebrew word, doesn't it? Can't believe there wasn't a better choice.

[@dyannahoney2255]

Uh...she looks much better now.

[@gnnrgmlng8327]

One month later Serena beat Henin 63 63 in Wimbledon Semis. What a sweet revenge!!

[@charleslucas2657]

Sympa aujourd'hui devant la caméra. Dommage qu'à l'époque elle était connue pour être désagréable avec les sportifs du quotidien.

[@23Echeo]

She didn't address about her lying to Serena and the umpire having her hand up? 🙄🙄😂😂😂🙄🙄🙄

[@deedledave9826]

One reckless moment doesn't define a career.

[@23Echeo]

@@deedledave9826 the majority of the public knows the TRUTH and that moment is NOT lost in our minds! Sucks that she won't admit to it 🙄🙄🙄😂😂🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

[@deedledave9826]

@@23Echeo But she did address it in an interview. I believe it was after her first retirement from the sport. I'm a big Henin fan, but I'm not blind to her flaws. It was a low moment and she displayed some questionable sportsmanship throughout her career. But let's not pretend that the hand incident was this seismic act that cost Serena the match at FO '03. Serena was impacted by the partisan crowd, blinked, and Henin made her pay.

[@23Echeo]

@@deedledave9826 that fake narrative doesn't fly. That point cost her the match. We all know she cheated and would practically do anything at all costs to win that match! Thankfully, karma got her in the end! 😂

[@deedledave9826]

@@23Echeo How is it a fake narrative? Serena seemed annoyed by the hand incident, but she shook her head, moved on, and served. She didn't look distraught by it at all. The crowd got to her, not Henin.

[@Tommy-xt6st]

I remember her not admitting to the umpire hat she lifted her left hand to stop Serena's serve. She also retired in the AO final when she was loosing to Mauresmo. She is not a true champion and she has bad sportsmanship.

[@ms.ronaldmonroe8779]

I think it's the language barrier but the way she talks about Serena is respectful but I would not want anyone to say those things about me as a 🎾 player.

[@broncoguy4862]

Was a fan of Henin's until the 2003 FO hand incident against Serena...now she's just another player who would stop at nothing, including cheating, to win.

[@einarsd4]

Henin never cheated. You simply are butthurt hater of Justine Henin. She is one of the greatest tennis players of all time. Stop looking for the most dumb excuses to hate her.

[@dugie9]

@@einarsd4lol to say she didn’t cheat when there is literal video evidence everywhere including the replies clearly showing her hand up. Also, Justine literally ADMITTED to it.

[@einarsd4]

@@dugie9 That wasn't cheating. She accidentally raised her hand up. She didn't do that on purpose. No athlete is cheater. Also you don't realize that athletes are getting penalized if they are found guilty in cheating. If she would have cheated, she would have been penalized for it, so keep crying your bs cries.

[@weronikahmielewicz4033]

Not a fan of Williams, though. I heard Henin had quiet ban (she was caught taking doping).

Whiner.

[@dariak1221]

What dis she do exactly to Mauresmo?

[@norfan123]

Maybe because she didn't finish the match against mauresmo in AO 2006, so mauresmo won her very first GS in a very strange way...

[@Thereallevan]

2006? Wow the hardheaded never learn

[@danielgeorgetheoneandonly]

What she did to Mauresmo, Clijsters and Serena wasn’t classy and I think it’ll be a permanent stain on her legacy…. Great player but when the need to win exceeds that of basic sportsmanship, you deserve absolutely no credit.

[@dallasharlow4431]

Cry. Justine and her game was one of the best ever. It's a shame she retired early.

[@SHVideografie]

Nothing comes close to threatening a line judge and umpire like Serena.
