What about Justine Henin?
Do you know who she is? Have you ever heard of her? She is the #1 female tennis player in the world right now and she just retired at the young age of 25. Yeah, that is right, retired at 25. While that is young, I have to say, she has gone through a lot in her young life:
- Mother died of cancer when Justine was 12.
- Became estranged from her father and siblings for a decade when they didn’t approve of her boyfriend.
- Got married at the young age of 20
- Got divorced last year after 5 years of marriage.
- Reconciled with her family last year.
She is having no farewell tour, her retirement is immediate, she is saying fatigue is the main factor. I can see why after all the things I listed about her. She was (and technically still is) a damn good tennis player, a cutie and a fun person to watch play. She will be missed but I wish her the best of luck in the future. Oh and if Justine is reading this, call me, I am single.

Ello Bob. I am very, how do you say, flattered by your proposition. But I think I will pass on your offer. Unless, you are that handsome man I saw in the stands at the tournament in Canada last year who blew me a kiss. Ooh la la.

I was playing baseball next door, so no it wasn’t me up in the stands.

I don’t follow tennis and have never heard of her before this.
