Fresh from the divorce court and back onto the tennis court, Justine Henin won the Qatar Open with a 6-4, 6-2 win, beating out Russian Svetlana Kuznetsova.

Having had to pull out of the Australian Open this year for "personal reasons," the Belgian newspaper, Le Soir, reported that she has been preoccupied with the process of divorcing her husband of four years, Peirre-Yves Hardenne.

''I never lost my tennis,'' she said. ''All I needed was to get my confidence back and I am proud of the way I did that. I needed to move forward and know who I am.''
