The break occurred Wednesday, but the extent of her injury only became apparent Friday.

Henin is a right-hander who plays with a single-handed backhand, so uses her left hand for nothing more than a ball toss, but the pain was still enough to rule her out for Saturday's opening singles. If she plays at all, Henin might come back for Sunday's doubles.
