Henin Justine Retires From Tennis for Second Time

Justine Henin is retiring from tennis. Again.
Henin has announced her retirement from the world of professional tennis for the second time, five days after she lost in the third round of the Australian open to the No. 23 seed Svetlana Kuznetsova, 4-6, 6-7 (8).
Citing a lingering right elbow injury, the former world No. 1 first retired in 2008 when she was on top of the tennis world. Henin returned 20 months later and reached the final of the 2010 Australian Open where she lost to Serena Williams.

Audi Wins World Snow Polo Championship in Aspen

Audi's team of aces beat out the Beluga Vodka squad from Russia to capture the World Snow Polo Championship in Aspen the other day after a fierce battle. The conditions at Aspen's Wagner Park were not ideal this year; thin snow cover prevented organizers from being able to properly pack and groom the field with heavy equipment, the Aspen Times reports. "Players spent much of the day at a standstill, trying to dig the ball out of the snow or muffing shots as the half-buried ball refused to budge, even after a hard strike," the paper notes. "Several point-blank scoring opportunities were lost as players were unable to get a clean strike." Bombardier Jets' team took third place. Meanwhile, competition is heating up for the St. Moritz Polo World Cup (above) taking place later this month in Switzerland, which will no doubt offer better conditions.
