Inspired by Kim Clijsters, Justine Henin is also going to make a comeback and re-enter women's tennis. Even though she only went into retirement 16 months ago, Henin says that Clijsters' incredible victory at the US, and the pair's old rivalry, has inspired her to have another go. Do people think tha...

Having "retired" last year at ATP Rotterdam, Raemon Sluiter has a chance 18 months on to win his first ATP title!!! At the age of 31, he's ranked 866 in the world, having reached a couple of futures finals this year and a semi final, but got a wild card in to Rosmalen. And he's reached the final a...

Best of luck to Ed and Matt who are still involved in the Division 1 NCAA team tournament for Texas and UCLA respectively.

Reading about Miss Williams on the BBC after she pulled out of her match at the Madrid open when trailing by a set...
