Second Serve

 

By Nick Georgandis

A former world No. 1 announced Baby No. 1 on Wednesday.
Justine Henin, seven-time Grand Slam champion, shared with the world the news of the birth of her daughter Lalie via Facebook and Twitter.
Henin and boyfriend Benoit Bertuzzo said, "We were anticipating this so much, and now it has happened, this afternoon a little fairy arrived to illuminate our lives ... She is in top form and we are really delighted! Justine and Benoit."
Bertuzzo, a Belgian director, was first linked romantically to Henin in May of 2011.
Henin spent 117 weeks at No. 1 in the world in her playing days, including 61 straight from March 2007 to May 2008. She shocked the world by retiring while ranked No. 1, then returned to the game in early 2010 before retiring a second time a year later.
Henin had no children in her previous marriage to Pierre-Yves Hardenne, who she divorced in 2007.
