Any interest in watching the 2010 Australian Open champion and 2009 US Open Champion hit fast balls at each other at Madison Square Garden this winter? Oh yeah, in addition to Serena Williams (#1) and Kim Clijsters (#17), Venus Williams (#6) and Svetlana Kuznetsova (#3) will be there. We’re thinking it’ll be a showdown.
