Le 7 juin 2003, sur le court Philippe-Chatrier, Justine Henin dispute face à Kim Clijsters une finale 100 % belge historique à Roland-Garros. Considérée comme outsider malgré son immense talent, la Wallonne arrive portée par un tournoi exceptionnel et une victoire marquante contre Serena Williams. Depuis l'enfance, elle nourrit un rêve intime : gagner à Paris, là où elle avait promis à sa mère de triompher un jour. Longtemps freinée par les défaites en Grand Chelem et par la domination de Clijsters dans leurs confrontations, Henin semble enfin prête. Transformée physiquement et mentalement après un travail intense avec son équipe, elle affiche une détermination nouvelle. Dès le début du match, elle impose son rythme, son revers à une main et son intelligence de jeu, étouffant totalement son adversaire. Elle remporte le premier set 6-0, puis résiste au sursaut de Clijsters dans une seconde manche plus disputée. Au moment de conclure, toute la pression de son parcours et de sa promesse semble se concentrer sur quelques échanges. Quand la dernière balle retombe du bon côté, Justine Henin s'effondre, victorieuse, émue, enfin sacrée en Grand Chelem. Ce succès à Roland-Garros marque le début d'une nouvelle dimension pour sa carrière et fait entrer définitivement le tennis belge dans l'histoire.
