Henin claims 8th title of yearAssociated Press
Monday, October 8, 2007
STUTTGART, Germany — Justine Henin rallied to beat Tatiana Golovin 2-6, 6-2, 6-1 Sunday and win the Porsche Grand Prix, her eighth title of the year. Henin, the world's top-ranked player, dropped her first set since losing the Wimbledon semifinal to Marion Bartoli. But she stretched her winning streak to 16 matches, which included a title at the U.S. Open. Golovin lost the Porsche Grand Prix final for the second straight year, after beating No. 2 Svetlana Kuznetsova in Saturday's semifinal. Henin now has 37 career titles. She also won the French Open and is 54-4 for the year. /AP-ES-10-07-07 0922EDT
