http://www.henin-hardenne.be/bin/index.asp?lang=en 13/11/2006: Off tour for seven weeks, Justine was not the first name on the media pundits list of players to finish at #1 or even win the WTA Championships, despite a history of playing out of this world tennis at big marquee tournaments. Flying very much under the radar Justine entered Madrid, and gave a standing ovation performance to sweep the honors of year end #1, season #1, plus Sony Ericsson WTA Masters Champion. The Big Questions "I came here with a lot of questions in my head and I didn't know if I could be healthy and play five matches at this level in six days. I just didn't know what to expect, but it couldn't have ended better. I won the tournament and ended the year as number one. What more could I ask for? I'm just so happy right now. The key this week was being very aggressive no matter what happened. I did a lot of serve and volley. I went to the net and it really paid off. It's the first time I play well in the championships, and it's not my best surface but I proved I could play here and I played well on it". Living For The Moment "I don't want to think about next year. I want to enjoy the moment. Life goes by too fast, and if I start thinking about what's going to happen next year I think I'll miss very important emotions right now. It's been an unbelievable week. We didn't even know if I could play here 15 days ago, but we decided to give it a go and it's gone like a dream." Rating 2006 "I think I played 13 tournaments, got to 10 finals, had six victories and got in the finals of all the grand slams and won the French Open. I wasn't at my best level at Wimbledon and the U.S. Open, but I'm not going to think too much about that. I can say now that this has been the best season of my career, that's for sure." Flight Plans For The Future "Wimbledon is a goal next year, but it's not going to be an obsession, that would be a mistake. Every time I walk on the court I want to give my best and it's going to be great." Allez Justine, and Thank you! --
