martina on the comeback

i've always been partial to swiss miss martina hingis, who recently launched a comeback after a multi-year hiatus due to injury.

the comeback kicked into high gear at the australian open, with a solid quarterfinal showing in singles and a 15th career title (singles and doubles combined) in mixed doubles with my indian brethren mahesh bhuphati.

she earns perhaps the biggest victory in her comeback thus far with a victory over world rank #4 maria sharapova.
sorry no pictures...
