Federer, Nadal to play charity match for Haiti
INDIAN WELLS, California (AP)—Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal will team with retired stars Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi in a charity tennis exhibition to raise money for Haiti.

The “Hit For Haiti” match will be played March 12 during the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells.

Tournament director Steve Simon says he expects a minimum of $1 million to be raised for Haiti earthquake relief efforts. A similar event held during the Australian Open raised more than $600,000.

Federer and Sampas will team for the doubles match against Nadal and Agassi.

Net proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the American Red Cross. Fans will be able to donate through text messages and onsite contributions.
