Clijsters: No Trophy For This Wife

After competing for the last time on her home turf in Belgium, Kim Clijsters paid teary tribute to her local fans. Though Amelie Mauresmo won the Proximus Diamond Games and thereby the diamond-studded tennis racquet, Clijsters is more focused on the diamond engagment ring sparkling on her own left hand. She and her fiance American basketball player Brian Lynch have set their wedding date for July 14, just after Wimbledon. Apparently Clijsters enjoys pressure. Currently ranked fourth in the world, Clijsters has decided to skip the season’s second Grand Slam, Roland Garros. She plans to keep busy preparing for Wimbledon and her wedding instead.
