What? No way! She was still ranked as #1! Right before tennis season too...

Quoted: Henin retired from tennis Wednesday, an abrupt ending to a career in which she won seven Grand Slam singles titles and spent more than 100 weeks ranked No. 1.

Dang, good for Roddick! Let's hope this is a sign of what's to come for him this tennis season...

Quoted: Andy Roddick used his strong serve to upset Rafael Nadal 7-6 6-2 to reach the semifinals of the Dubai Tennis Championships.

Glad to see Blake playing so well! Not sure if he'll be able to beat Federer, but it'll still be a good match...

Quoted: Federer, Blake to meet in Aussie Open quarters.

This is too bad... The Williams sisters have been plagued by injuries lately. I really hope she's able to recover in time for the summer tournaments.

Quoted: An injury which forces Serena Williams to retire from her match ends hopes of a clash with sister Venus at the Family Circle Cup in Memphis.

Wow, some big news for tennis. Women may play shorter matches, but lately, they definitely have been attracting as much of a crowd and as much money (if not more). Their games tend to be more interesting to watch (not to mention the US & Australian Open already pay equal prize money) so I say they deserve it!

Quoted: Wimbledon bowed to public pressure and agreed to pay women players as much as the men beginning this year.

I didn't realize they were playing together either... glad to see they're still in it!

Oh neat! It's good to see another strong competitor in the mix... should make things intereting...
