That's great news for those long-suffering Dinara fans.

Dinara arrived in Sydney from a 30 hour flight from Nice to play the Medibank International which begins Sunday as part of the Australian Open Series.
In an interview on the tournament website she had this to say about her comeback from back injury, "I'm 100 per cent. I'm ready to play. If I play my best, let's see what can happen."
A first Slam title perhaps? Only if the 'chicken' from Roland Garros has been fried!
She also had some very kind words about the Justine Henin's return (remember Safina handed Henin her last loss in Germany in '08 before she said so long), "Justine is a great player and I really respect and admire her a lot so it's nice to see her back and happy on a tennis court."
Welcome back Dinara.
