Henin, Clijsters could team up for Olympics

Belgian tennis stars Justine Henin and Kim Clijsters have said that they are looking to play doubles together at the London 2012 Olympics.

The only obstacle in their way at the moment is scheduling difficulties, they added, ahead of an exhibition match against each other in Antwerp.

Henin will be playing her first competitive match since an elbow injury ended her season after Wimbledon.

Henin has Olympic pedigree, having won the gold medal in the singles at the 2004 Games in Athens, while Clijsters has never competed at the Olympics in her career.

Were the pair to play together in London, where the tennis will take place on the grass of Wimbledon, it will be the first time they have played competitively as a partnership since 2006.

They have played eight doubles matches together, winning an ITF tournament in 1998, but losing their last four matches.
