"Justine has the best backhand in the world".

Venus Williams (after losing to Justine in Berlin in 2001): "She’s got everything it takes to become the world’s number one".

 

[Marquis]

Martina Hingis: "Im so glad a player like Justine won Roland Garros!"

 

[Brαm]

Andre Agassi: "Hey there, champion!" when seeing her on a practise court, a couple of weeks after Roland Garros!

 

[ns_Henin]

Andre Agassi: "Hey there, champion!"

what kind of words thats it? teasing words or honest comments?
LOL :lol:

 

[fleemke³]

Andre spoke to Justine the first time ever at Wimbledon to congratulate her for her victory

she's with the big ones now

 

[minboy]

Andre didn't speak to justine for the first time at wimbledon. At rg 2001, she congratulate her after her 1/4 and said " it's great to see you play like that"

anyway,

navratilova: " it's the biggest shot in tennis today" ( about her.....guess what)
venus : " she's an artist on the court"
Henry Leconte and Guy forget couldn't stop saying how they love justine's game during this year's FO. Right before the final, Leconte said he thought kim will win but said also he wish it was justine because it would be "great for the game"
Seles : " justine is an amazing player" ( after their 1/8 match in AO 2001 )
Wayna arthurs ( i know it's only wayne arthurs but, hey, he's a player after all ) : " i love watching justine henin playing coz it's great to see what she can achieve against physically stronger player "


and i guess whe could quote john mac a thousand times here!

Justine defeated Serena, not Venus, in Berlin 2002

But Venus was ousted in straight sets by Justine in Berlin 2001

nice quotes guys i like the andre one

I HOPE Justine will do Arthur Ashe Kids Day b4 the US Open. Wouldn't that be a treat to the fans? (especially coz i live an hour away from Flushing Meadow)

"Justine is really talented. She has a formidable stroke which allows her to use the racket in a way I can't," Williams said,
describing the famed Henin backhand in an interview with La Derniere Heure newspaper.

("As for Kim Clijsters, she's very solid. She's not afraid of anything.) Both of them have the undeniable potential to become
number one in the world," she added.

 

[Marquis]

Kim Clijsters= Justine is the best Clay Court player in the world.

You don't have to be a genius to figure that out, though :lol:

 

[minboy]

john mac : "......and how i LOVE that girl!!!! ( during 1/8 AO 2003)

 

[caseyl45]

"This girl is very good. My coach watched her a few days ago and warned me she was good. She was really dictating play."
Lindsay Davenport after beating Justine at the 1999 French Open

"It's true that Justine has the best technique, but the men hit so much harder. Nevertheless, if you see her hitting a backhand cross-court, all you can do is admire the replay."
Sabine Appelmans on Justine's backhand

"She'll be back for sure. She's a real talent."
Martina Navratilova after Justine lost the Wimbledon final in 2001

"It's pretty amazing how we started at the same thing and ended sort of always around the same ranking. I'm really happy for her. With everything she's been through in her private life already, I'm happy it all went her way."
Kim Clijsters on Justine

I like this topic

ANNA KOURNIKOVA after her 6-0 6-1 loss at the AO2003): Well, we were both on the court. [...] It was -- Justine played really, really well. She didn't give me any opportunities or any chances. [... ] She started off playing really, really well. Every single point, she was fighting for it. I was always on the defense, and she was always a step ahead of me. She was being -- she was playing aggressive.

 

[minboy]

J CAP, asked if she had ever seen such a 'lethal backhand' : "she's always had that backhand......but today it was everything!!" ( after wimby 1/2 2001 )

S.testud : " it's gonna take some time until the top-players find some weaknesses in her game" ( after gold coast final 2001 )

 

[minboy]

guy forget : " ...that backhand, this is gold in tablets" ( well i don't know how to translate it, but in french there is an expression which says " c'est de l'or en barre", which means this is 'pure gold' or something)

 

[pigam]

Serena Williams , after she won (that explains a lot ) her semi-final match against Justine at Wimbledon "I think she's a good player, I think she's nice person "

 

[Elleke]

@ this thread!
great idea
it's good to see even ATP players giving nice comments about Justine

 

[ns_Henin]

Martina Hingis: "Im so glad a player like Justine won Roland Garros!"

I think at the beginning of this season, Martina said that the one and only player who will stop the williams sisters is Kim. But she's not Kim, she's our Justine
Justine ends Serena's 21 winning streak, Justine ends Serena's Slams streak, and Amazingly she's one of the most titlist this year with 5 titles C'mon JUsTinE, take the US open title to your bracket
