Kim Clijsters reveals that she is feeling fit ahead of her final appearance at Wimbledon.

Kim Clijsters had revealed that she is feeling physically fit ahead of her final Wimbledon Championships.

The 29-year-old Belgian announced earlier this year that the US Open in September will be the last Grand Slam appearance of her career.

Despite recently pulling out of the UNICEF Open in the Netherlands with an abdominal injury, Clijsters insists that she is ready to handle the upcoming fortnight.

"Nobody knows if they're going to be fit enough for the two weeks," she said. "But I feel like I have these last few days. I've been resting. I've had treatment. I feel like every day it's been getting better."

Clijsters, who takes on Jelena Jankovic in the first round of the tournament, was a semi-finalist at the All-England Club in 2003 and 2006.
