 PARIS (AP) - Serena Williams failed to end Justine Henin's record run at the French Open. Keeping Williams on the move with versatile shotmaking, two-time defending champion Henin advanced to the semifinals by winning 6-4, 6-3 Tuesday.
Henin extended her Open era record winning streak at Roland Garros to 31 consecutive sets. The Belgian is two rounds from becoming the first woman to win three consecutive French Open titles since Monica Seles in 1990-92.
Williams, who had won her past 11 Grand Slam matches, was the lone remaining American in men's or women's singles. She was puzzled by her poor play and reluctant to credit Henin.
