Belgium's Justine Henin completed a historic year with her victory over Maria Sharapova in the end of season WTA Championships in Madrid to become the first player to win ten titles in a season since Martina Hingis achieved the feat ten years ago. Her phenomenal exploit also included Grand Slam wins in the French Open and the US Open and she was a semi-finalist at Wimbledon. Even more amazingly she achieved all this despite her season not beginning until February because of personal reasons. During the year, she only lost four out of 67 matches and her winning percentage totalled 94%, the best in women's tennis since 1989.
