Hit For HAITI

Australian Open

January 17th, 2010

The event was proposed by Roger Federer, and was organised in under 24 hours to aid victims of the 2010 Haiti earthquake. Nine players participated, in two teams (named after the colours in the Haitian flag). Players wore microphones during play, and competed in doubles, mixed doubles, and other arrangements. Team Red defeated Team Blue, 7–6. Additional donations were solicited at the event, and several other players – including Marcos Baghdatis and Maria Sharapova – donated money directly. The event raised around $400,000 — Wikipedia
