Justine Henin

Insights

Seven titles, five finals, and five semifinals define the peak

Across 35 Grand Slam tournaments, Henin’s best results include 7 titles, 5 runner-up finishes, and 5 semifinal runs. That concentration of deep finishes sits behind her 141-28 record, an 83% win rate over 169 matches.

2003-2007 was the dominant five-year stretch

From 2003 through 2007, she reached at least the semifinal stage in 14 of 20 Slam appearances, including titles at the 2003 French Open, 2003 US Open, 2004 Australian Open, 2005 French Open, 2007 French Open, and 2007 US Open. The only clear interruption in that span was the 2005 Wimbledon R128 result.

French Open was her most reliable major

Her French Open results are the strongest across the four Slams: titles in 2003, 2005, and 2007, plus a semifinal in 2001 and a final in 2006. The only major setback listed there is a R128 exit in 2002 and a R64 result in 2004.

Australian Open shows the widest swing in outcomes

At the Australian Open, she went from R64 in 2000 to R16 in 2001, then Q in 2002, S in 2003, champion in 2004, finalist in 2006, finalist again in 2010, and R32 in 2011. That sequence spans every round from qualification through the final.

Her career split cleanly into two phases

The listed Grand Slam career runs 1999-2008 and then resumes in 2010-2011. After the 2008 Australian Open Q result, she returned with a 2010 Australian Open final, but the comeback ended with R16 at Wimbledon and the French Open, then R32 at the 2011 Australian Open.
