Li to play exhibition event in hometown

Beijing - One month after their match at Wimbledon in which newly crowned French Open winner Li Na lost to eventual semifinalist Sabine Lisicki in the second round, the two have set up another encounter.

However, for Li, this match will have nothing to do with revenge, but will be full of fun as part of the Li Na & Friends exhibition event to be held in Li's hometown of Wuhan in Hubei province from Dec 17-18.

Joining them will be 14-time Grand Slam singles champion Pete Sampras and former world No 1 Carlos Moya, who, like Li, won a Roland Garros singles crown.
