Sports Fact of the Day 3/19/2007

3/19/2005:

Kim Clijsters of Belgium completes a remarkable comeback from a career-threatening wrist injury with a 6-4, 4-6, 6-2 victory over Lindsay Davenport in the finals of the Pacific Life Open at Indian Wells, California. After winning this tournament in 2003, Clijsters hurt her wrist right here in 2004. Today she soundly beats the net-rushing Davenport with bristling ground strokes off both sides and will follow up this victory two weeks from now by winning another prominent Tour event at Key Biscayne, Florida.
