http://0rz.net/451zQ Justine Untroubled in Opener Tuesday, 27 June, 2006 Justine Henin-Hardenne made short and unforgiving work of her first round opponent on Centre Court today. Kicking off the afternoon's proceedings on Wimbledon's main stage – a change to the traditional Tuesday opening fixture of the Ladies' champion, thanks to yesterday's deluge – Henin despatched Meng Yuan of China 6-0, 6-1 in just 56 minutes to secure her place in the second round. It could hardly have been a greater contrast than the Belgian's experience 12 months ago. Then as now she came to SW19 with the French Open title under her belt, only to be dumped out of Wimbledon at the first hurdle by the Greek Eleni Daniilidou, making Henin the first reigning Roland Garros champion in history to suffer that ignominy. But Yuan was no match for Henin, and the signs are the latter has progressed smoothly from Paris – where she did not drop a set on her way to the title – via her triumph at Eastbourne last week, to the All England Club this. Since making the Wimbledon final at 19 in 2001, her career has been a mixture of glorious success in major tournaments – she has won five Slam titles – and long period of injury and illness. But if she should lift the Venus Rosewater Dish 11 days hence, it could also take her back to the world number one spot. Yuan seemed to be getting off to an encouraging start, looking all set to open the match by holding to love. But from 0-40 the Belgian moved quickly into gear and promptly broke. If that was not sufficiently psychologically crushing, in the third game she replied to a Yuan dropshot with a far better one of her own. Yuan is a baseliner who favours hardcourts, and grass in general seemed a new and unsettling experience for the 20-year-old Chinese – on one occasion she tried sliding along it, in the manner of clay, and came to a juddering halt. Such are the potential pitfalls for those who make their Wimbledon debut on the Centre Court . Henin, on the other hand, seemed to thoroughly enjoy the workout, galloping happily about the court and swinging her way through a range of shots on her way to a victory which always had routine written all over it. At 0-3 Yuan managed to take her opponent to deuce, but an especially savage forehand saw Henin back to safe ground. Come to think of it, never mind the signature Henin backhand, today the savage forehand proved horribly effective time and time again. Henin experienced only one moment of embarrassment when she held three set points for the first set. Her much-praised backhand went astray, and then she delivered two successive double faults before wrapping up the set without the loss of any games. Yuan, currently ranked 99 and thus among the eight Chinese women inside the top 100, is one of the rising Chinese being groomed for the Beijing Olympics of 2008. She is certainly on the way up, having finished 2005 ranked 153, but Henin was far too good for her. The crowd offered warm applause when she finally got her name on the scoreboard at 4-1 in the second, but it was way too late. At 5ft 6in, Yuan may be one of the few women in tennis as short as Henin, but today it was the Belgian who was walking tall.
