Some of the best tennis players on the world and thousands of tennis fans gathered on Sunday afternoon in Melbourne for a special exhibition to raise money for the victims of Australia's flood disaster.
Team Gold, led by Lleyton Hewitt, included Novak Djokovic, Ana Ivanovic, Justine Henin, Caroline Wozniacki, Roger Federer and Sam Stosur entered first to rapturous applause. They were followed by team green, which was led by Queenslander Pat Rafter, and made up of Andy Roddick, Andy Murray, Victoria Azarenka, Vera Zvonareva, Rafael Nadal and Kim Clijsters.
