The former professional tennis players, Gabriela Sabatini and Martina Navratilova played yesterday a charity exhibition of just 1 set at the Buenos Aires Lawn Tennis Club. The exhibition was organized by the Myasthenia (muscle weakness that strikes mostly women between 21 and 35 years) Gravis Foundation (FAIAM) of Argentina, to raise awareness and funds to search for a cure of the illness. Sabatini won 6-4. Gabriela and Martina also played doubles against Argentina's Paola Suarez and Patricia Tarabini. We don't know the result of that one, but it doesn't metter.
And I have to say, Gabriela looks fantastic!! Much better then in her playing days!
Here are some photos from the event. Enjoy!
