In 2007, Clijsters initially retired at age 23 due to chronic injury and her desire to start a family with husband and former pro basketball player Brian Lynch. Clijster gave birth to daughter Jada in February of 2008.

In 2009, in just the third tournament of her comeback, Clijsters stunned the world winning the US Open as an unranked wild card.

Clijsters, a mom to three kids, won four Grand Slam singles titles and two major doubles crowns in her career.
