Amelie: At Last

Mauresmo and the Daphne Akhurst Memorial Cup

A dream come true for Amelie Mauresmo of France was a nightmare for Belgian Justine Henin-Hardenne after their expected close clash turned out to be a one-sided affair dominated by the french world No.3. until the ailing world No.6 decided to raise a white flag early on the second set.

Amelie Mauresmo finally held the Daphne Akhurst Memorial Cup and erased the bitter memories of her only Grand Slam final appearance seven years ago when she fell to Martina Hingis in the same tournament.
