Clijsters and Davydenko withdraw from French Open

Question

Kim Clijsters will have to wait at least another year to claim the French Open title that so narrowly eluded her in 2001 and 2003.

The US Open champion has withdrawn from the clay-court major after the foot injury she sustained playing in April’s Fed Cup tie for Belgium has failed to heal in time for Roland Garros, which begins on May 23rd.

Answer 1

I wouldn't fancy a fully fit KC to win the French anyway

The female game is stronger now than it was when Kim reached the finals. And wasn't she lame without pace to work with during her abortive clay court season

I'd give her a reasonable chance of winning Wimbledon though
