Henin outdrew Jankovic at the tables sent out for the all-access session by about 12-2. She was well worth listening to, talking freely on a wide variety of subjects. Henin said she thoroughly enjoyed her trip with her best friends and their 6-year-old son to South Africa after she won the Tour Championships in Madrid in November. After that, she said that she done her off-season training in her tax-haven home in Monte Carlo, and said she was able to play outside. "When I'm in Monaco, I miss my family, my friends," Henin said about being torn between her residences. "In Belgium it's a crazy life, there's too much attention on me. I like it when people I love come to Monaco. That's the best for me. Life in Monaco is good because it's only tennis and taking care of myself, which I don't do in Belgium because my life is pretty crazy there. I have a lot of things to do for press, sponsors and fans. In Monaco it's a pretty quiet life. Describing being Justine in Belgium, Henin continued, "In Belgium it's crazy, which I understand. People come up to me and call me 'Ju-Ju,' because everyone calls me 'Ju-Ju' even if I hate that. That was good when I was a little girl. I'm 25, I think it's time to move forward. And they say, we all have the impression we know you. It's like I'm a full member of every family in Belgium, which is great. I'm really proud of it. But sometimes I just say, 'give me a break.' I'm doing better with that. I'm more open. I understand the situation and it's amazing, in sport, we're lucky because we give a lot of emotions to people. People are together behind an athlete. I'm lucky to do that because it gives a lot of smiles and a lot of love and that gives a sense to what I do." It's remarkable how well she now expresses herself in English. Henin was asked when she began to feel really comfortable in the language of Shakespeare and Tim Henman. "It's been for a while," she said. "But last year I had to express myself a lot more in English and now I really feel at ease. I'm not sure when everything clicked but now it comes more naturally, more easily. I never studied English. It just came from the tour and travelling. "It's not easy for people ... to talk about their career and their life in a language that isn't their mother tongue. But I've never been afraid to do it and I'm getting better and better." Reflecting on the fact that she missed Australia (due to her marriage break-up) last year, Henin said, "I wasn't here last year for all the reasons we know. Two years ago, I left Melbourne (after retiring against Amelie Mauresmo in the Aussie Open final) and I was pretty sad. I wasn't healthy then. My stomach was hurting me a lot. It's quite emotional to be back in Australia. I missed the tournament last year but I was focused on something much more important. It's great to be back but I forgot how long the trip was and how bad the jetlag is." Giving her two cents worth on the change in court surface from Rebound Ace to Plexicushion, Henin said, "I don't really understand why they changed the courts. I did like the Rebound Ace but I don't have the feeling there's a big, big difference. When local boy Lleyton Hewitt was asked he thought the hullabaloo about the courts would blow over once they are played in and it gets toward the end of the Australian Open. "Obviously any kind of change or new thing and all you guys are going write about it, aren't you?" he said. "Yeah, I don't think it's a big deal for the players. We play on hard courts three-quarters of the year. I wouldn't say it's that much different than Indian Wells and Miami. I don't think it's going to be a big deal. I think it's pretty equal for all players." 本篇文章转自WTAworld版友thenj提供的新闻，其实落落长了一堆，我只注意到 Ju说不喜欢人家叫她Juju，当她是小女孩时，那OK，可是她觉得自己已经25岁了， 要有所成长。 说真的，这小孩真的很可爱耶，一副很怕让人当小孩子看的感觉XDD "听说" 她教练(Carlos) 都叫她Ju，哈哈，那我也从善如流吧，Justine高兴就好... 後面出现一段有点莫名的Hewitt，本来想cut掉，但是想想Hewitt对Ju评价颇高， 曾经称赞她几次，所以就让他继续留在那吧~(笑) <--这段是开玩笑 --
