Easy Semifinal Win for the Returning Justine Henin

The second Chinese woman to play in the semifinal of the 2010 Australian Open, Jie Zheng, just won one game the entire match. Jie's serve was a cakewalk for the returning former number one, Justine Henin. Final score of the match is 6/1 6/0.

Henin faces Serena Williams in their first ever match in a major's final. Justine won their last three matches in a major's final in 2007. Serena won in their last match in 2008 just before Justine went into retirement.

It looks like Justine may have an upper hand looking at Serena's lack of mobility and lack of rest. Serena pairs with sister Venus Williams in the women's double's semifinal match later today. Should the sisters win their match today, they will play in the finals tomorrow leaving Serena without a day-off before the women's final on Saturday.
