Retired Belgian tennis ace Kim Clijsters has admitted that the the thought of playing at the Australian Open may encourage her for a third stint on the women's tour.
Clijsters admitted to a few pangs of jealousy as her Serbian friend and former world number one Ana Ivanovic prepared to jet off to Melbourne for the year's first Grand Slam.
According to CNN, Clijsters said that she misses being in Australia at the start of the year the most of her career, although the mother-of-two is not about to make a comeback now like she did in 2009
Clijsters said that she does not miss the competition and the heavy work out schedule, adding that it was getting harder and harder to cope with her two children to take care of.
