Four of the greatest champions in women’s tennis history dazzled fans on Friday night as part of the BNP Paribas Open’s Hit for Haiti” charity exhibition presented by Oracle.
Stefanie Graf, Justine Henin, Martina Navratilova and Lindsay Davenport took part in a fun-filled doubles match to open the night of tennis in Indian Wells. Even though it has been some time since Davenport, Navratilova, and especially Graf competed, the shot-making on display during the match reminded just why these four women own a combined total of fifty Grand Slam titles. Henin and Navratilova defeated Graf and Davenport 8-6 to win the match.
The event, which also featured men’s stars Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, raised one million dollars for earthquake relief efforts in devastated Haiti.

The women’s chatter in this event was much more civilized than the men’s exchange due to Agassi.
It turns out Agassi is a real nasty person. The school he
founded is great, but nothing else about him is.
after Agassi’s so called admission of cheating and accepting all the benefits for many years I feel Agissi has no rights to throw stones at Sampras, with his sneaky remarks regards tipping.I felt for him and he handled it as best he could, well done Sampras.
