New Tricks Not to Lose | |
Justine Henin-Hardenne just showed us how to deny the glory to the opponent. Instead of losing the Australian Open to Mauresmo, she claimed a hurting stomach and retired at 1-6, 0-2. Very disappointing. It is one thing if you trip, fall down, or otherwise retire due to injury during play. It is quite another to retire while being beaten badly. Any righteous sportsperson would have finished the match. This is the second unsportsmanlike behaviour by Justine. A couple of years ago, her antics first surfaced while playing against Serena Williams.
