Henin and Roland Garros: Last part.

I had to work on Saturday, no chance in seeing the finals of Roland Garros.
-I planned my 10 min coffee break exactly on the moment of the last winning ball. And yes I saw it.-
Lousy match, we have to say. Pierce was very disappointing in this match.

Anyhooooo: Henin won.

Interesting to see:
-in Fnac Ghent -where I was working- people were gathered near the television screens. Kinda funny to see.
-on the court Belgian flags were waving in the wind -I guess it is only on these few events that we want to show our Belgian flag. You almost never see it in the streets at home. Belgians somehow seem not busy with being Belgian at all. Which is pretty different from other places I visited before ;)-
-The indifference when she won. I guess the match was too lousy to be happy about it.
-The price money: 830.000 dollars! No wonder she is moving to Monaco. She'd be crazy if she stayed in Belgium and give it too the taxes.
