GET ready for the rematch: Serena Williams and Kim Clijsters will play each other in an exhibition at Madison Square Garden on March 1.
The semifinal at the BNP Paribas Showdown for the Billie Jean King Cup will come less than six months after - and about a 10-mile (15-kilometer) drive from - their US Open semifinal, which ended abruptly with Williams' outburst at a line judge.
Clijsters went on to win the tournament. Williams later was fined a record $82,500 and placed on two years of probation at Grand Slam events.
The other semifinal on March 1 pits Williams' sister Venus against reigning French Open champion Svetlana Kuznetsova. The one-day event will feature one-set semifinals and a three-set final and has US$1.2 million in prize money.
