Well, you may call wimps, I call 'em rich wimps. They've been number 1, Henin pretty much won everything there was to win, Clijsters was a bit less succesful.
They're young, rich and apparently fed up with the game... whadaya gonna do about it? Henin is going through a divorce and Clijsters is about to get married, guess they both have a lot on their minds right now.
Martina Hingis quit and came back. The Williams sisters both took a break and I believe one of the two is back also. Who knows, maybe Henin and Clijsters will return as well.
Oh, and have you seen Clijsters do a split on court? You try that without hurting your muscles...
