I think all the danes do it or at least many. As far as I know it's simply to wipe of the dust from the soles. Personally I think it's just plain gross and would just lay down a towel next to the court (if allowed).
Based on my computation, Tine will be ranked #1 after the French Open. Her pts earned @ French Open SF (6420) will replace the pts earned @ Olympic (4800) and that's just enough to overtake Zhou Mi and Lu Lan (both have no changes in pts).

Tine Rasmussen – World Number One!! Badminton Europe 06 November 2008 Tine Rasmussen is officially the world number one. The tall Dane can now rightfully claim to be the world’s top performing women’s singles player following today's update in the BWF World Ranking. Fantastic triumphs at three Super Series events this year plus a silver medal at the European Championships has helped her to claim the top spot for the first time in her career. What a season Tine Rasmussen of Denmark is having. The new world number one has won three Super Series titles this year (All England Open, Malaysian Open, Singapore Open) plus three semi final positions in Super Series (Japan Open, Denmark Open, French Open) and was also runner-up at the European Championships. Rasmussen is also the European Mixed Team Champion and European Women’s Team Champion in 2008 playing of course for her nation Denmark.
And now her husband! (assuming that was the same fella ) http://www.billedbladet.dk/Kendte/Nyheder/2010/5/Tine Rasmussen - bryllup.aspx Should be a story up on Badzine as well. Thomas Laybourn got married as well which should be in the same article on Badzine ...
From Badzine international : " PEOPLE : Baun is born Thursday, 15 July 2010 10:23 A new name has entered the top 5 without any prior announcement : Tine Baun from Denmark is ranked world n 5 in the latest world ranking. But of course, all those who follow our "Gossip" column are aware that this player is no other than Tine Rasmussen, who recently got married to Martin Baun, team physio of the Denmark National team. Farewell to Tine Rasmussen - homonym of another famous player (Jonas, men's double) - and welcome to Tine Baun."
Was anyone else dissapointed with Tine Baun's performance in the semifinal against Saina? She seemed to be hindered by nerves and never really settled into the match. Granted that Saina played great, but Tine should have been able to put up a better resistance, had she been more calm. I am one of Tine's biggest fans as I am always entertained when she enters the court. Tine has an imposing posture and does sometime overboil with frustration. She has a very impressive power in her clears and smashes.
