Justine Henin wins French Open

Justine Henin joined the Roland Garros greats by defeating Ana Ivanovic 6-1, 6-2 on Saturday to complete a hat-trick of French Open titles.

In what was an embarrassingly one-sided 65-minute final, the 25-year-old Belgian became just the second woman in the post-1968 Open era to win three in a row after Monica Seles in 1990/92.

It was also her fourth win in five years in Paris and the sixth Grand Slam title of her career taking her past both Martina Hingis and Venus Williams. Only Serena Williams with eight titles has a better record among players still active.
