London: Martina Hingis is returning to professional tennis — again. The 25-year-old Swiss, who retired from the WTA Tour three years ago because of an ankle injury, is hoping to return to the circuit in early 2006 and resume a career which produced five Grand Slam titles and made her the youngest player to be ranked No 1. Hingis made a brief comeback in February, losing in the first round of the Volvo Women's Open in Thailand. Her previous match was at Filderstadt in October 2002, but she believed she prematurely returned to competition after a left ankle surgery, and withdrew from all the remaining tournaments. ``I was never happy that my injuries cut my career short and ultimately forced my decision to step away from tennis,'' Hingis said in a statement on Tuesday. ``I have enjoyed my time away from the court. However, I miss the game and the challenge of competing at the highest level. '' — AP
