Henin wants to win 1st Wimbledon for her family

EASTBOURNE, England (AP) -- Justine Henin wants to win Wimbledon for her family and friends.
The top-ranked Belgian, who won the French Open for the fourth time this month but still needs a title at the All England Club to complete a career Grand Slam, is preparing for next week's Wimbledon by playing at the grass-court tournament in Eastbourne.

"If I win it (Wimbledon), if I don't win it, another life is going to start in a few years probably, the real life," Henin said Monday. "It would be great and make me part of history, but that's not my biggest motivation. I would love to win it because emotionally it would be fantastic for the good people around me, but that's it."
