Clijsters, Henin unite for Belgium
 Clijsters helped Belgium claim their only other Fed Cup title in 2001. LONDON, England -- Kim Clisters and Justine Henin-Hardenne boosted Belgium's chances of winning a second Fed Cup when they were named in the squad for the semifinal against a weakened United States. The Americans will be hoping Jamea Jackson can reproduce the heroics that helped them knock out Germany 3-2 in the previous round. Jackson won both her singles rubbers on her competition debut in the first round to lead the U.S. into the last four. Venus and Serena Williams as well as Lindsay Davenport are unavailable for the tie in Ostend, Belgium from July 15 to 16. World number two Clijsters and third-ranked Henin-Hardenne helped Belgium win their maiden title in the team competition in 2001. Meanwhile, world number 27 Anabel Medina Garrigues will spearhead the Spanish team when they host Italy in the other semifinal in Zaragoza. Francesca Schiavone will lead the Italian challenge. The winners of the two ties will contest the final in September.
