before things got hot and heavy (officially) down at the aussie open, roger federer helped to organize and host "hit for haiti," and recruited rafael nadal, novak djokovic, andy roddick, lleyton hewitt, sam stosur, kim clijsters and serena williams to participate. the ap report and the photos suggest a fun, spirited time was had by all (plenty more pics for you superfans at yahoo! sports).
the event raised more than $185,00 for the haitian relief effort, with organizers expecting that amount to increase.
cheers to everyone who helped pull it all together at the last minute.
