Hingis set for Sydney comeback
Former world number one tennis player Martina Hingis looks set to make her much hyped return to the sport at January's International event in Sydney.
She made a one-off comeback to the WTA Tour last February, losing in three sets to Germany's Marlene Weingartner in the first round of the Thailand Open.
But Hingis' return to the professional tennis circuit is imminent, and she is seriously considering the Sydney International as her comeback tournament.
Sydney International tournament director Craig Watson has confirmed the Swiss player's management has expressed interest in competing in Sydney.
Watson admits that he would definitely offer Hingis a wildcard for the tournament if that is when she wished to make her comeback.
Hingis won 76 singles and doubles titles including 14 Grand Slam titles. She was the youngest player to ever rank number one in the world and one of only five
women players to have been ranked atop singles and doubles at the same time.
Hingis ranks third on the all- time career prize money list, behind Steffi Graf and Martina Navratilova.
The 25-year-old retired initially in October 2002 because of heel, foot and ankle injuries and has gone through several surgical procedures.
