No more late-night chocolate boxes for Henin, at least if she is to listen to her nutritionist’s advice.

"I've had to stop eating a lot of things," world No. 1 said on her arrival in Eastbourne for this week's International Women's Open. "I can't eat sugar any more before going to bed. I miss Belgian chocolate a lot." (Do you remember that severe stomach problems even forced Henin to retire in the middle of the Australian Open final against Amelie Mauresmo?)

Despite winning her fourth Roland Garros title only 10 days ago, Henin feels ready for Wimbledon. "I felt very good in Paris," she said. "I won all my matches in two sets. I think I feel fresher than I was before Wimbledon last year."

Maybe she feels so fresh because she has a new physical coach and a different training program.

BTW, I’ve chosen this photo because Justine really looks like: “Give me some chocolate, I was a good girl.”

Highest-ranked Chinese female player Na Li will probably take part in the next week’s grand slam, even though she had to withdraw from Eastbourne, the ongoing Wimbledon warm-up event, because she had strained a muscle in her chest.

"She decided not play in Eastbourne this week to give her time to recover from the injury. She is unlikely to pull out of Wimbledon," said Xie Miqing, spokeswomen of the China Tennis Association.

Last year, world No. 18 Na Li reached the quarter-finals of Wimbledon which established her as the first Chinese to go that far in a grand slam. (source: Reuters)

World No. 19 Vera Zvonareva pulled out of Wimbledon on Monday after failing to recover from a left wrist injury which bothered her for months and forced her to miss the French Open.

The 23-year-old Russian has not played since retiring while trailing Dinara Safina in the semifinals of the Family Circle Cup in April.

Zvonareva will be replaced by Canada’s Aleksandra Wozniak who lost in the first round at the Australian Open and French Open this year.

Other players that have previously withdrawn from the grass-court grand slam are the 2004 French Open champion Anastasia Myskina, world No. 63 Zheng Jie and world No. 124 Romina Oprandi.

The Williams sisters, the 2000 and 2002 Wimbledon doubles champions, have been given a late wildcard into the doubles draw after Britain's Amanda Elliott and Katie O'Brien withdrew due to Elliott’s wrist injury. (via Reuters, Yahoo!Sports)

Jelena Jankovic has been amazing this year – she reached a career-high No. 3 in the singles rankings, and collected titles from Auckland (hardcourt), Charleston (clay), Rome (clay), adding to them today’s Birmingham trophy (grass). Moreover, this year she has earned more points than any other WTA player.

I was definitely wrong when I said that she should have skipped the tournament in Strasbourg in order to relax a bit. I thought she was playing too much and that it would affect her game – but Jankovic proved me wrong. After Strasbourg, she reached the semi-finals of Roland Garros and now she defeated the 2004 Wimbledon Champion Maria Sharapova to win the DFS Classic in Birmingham. Her form is simply amazing.

Maria Sharapova, the No. 1 seed and a two-time champion in Birmingham, beat Marion Bartoli of France 7-5, 6-0 in a semifinal on Sunday. Bartoli, who completed her suspended quarterfinal earlier Sunday, defeated third-seeded Daniela Hantuchova of Slovakia 5-7, 6-4, 7-5.

The match between Sharapova and Bartoli was temporarily delayed when two spectators needed medical assistance – a woman was left unconscious after falling down a staircase, and a man in another part of the stadium fainted. The helicopter had to be sent to take the woman to the hospital.

Second-seeded Jelena Jankovic reached the final by defeating Italy’s Mara Santangelo 6-1, 7-5.

The final will take place also on Sunday; I’ll keep you posted! (via ESPN)
