...Even three lifetimes would hardly suffice for Henin's record run in professional tennis. She won a total of seven Grand Slam titles, including four of the last five French Opens. 'Juju,' as she's called by her doting Belgian public, also won 41 WTA singles titles and earned more than $19 million in prize money during her eleven-year career. She headed the WTA rankings for the 117th time this week, and had been No. 1 almost solidly since November 2006.
