Before Exhibition Match
By Rachelle Corpuz | December 26, 2013 1:44 PM EST
Serena Williams and Victoria Azarenka, the two top players in the world, will
walk down the ramp in a fashion show in Thailand a day before their
exhibition match Saturday, Dec. 28.
The celebrity fashion show, "Made in Thailand Night with Serena and
Victoria," will be held at the Inter Continental Hua Hin Resort, Bangkok Post
reported.
It wouldn't be the first time for the Belarusian professional tennis player
to strut her stuff in the cat walk. Azarenka has also participated in the
fashion show when she lost to Li Na in the charity tournament in the 2012-13
season.
The dresses that Williams and Azarenka are going to wear will be crafted from
high-quality silk by renowned Thai designer Unawan Tangkarawakun.
Luwan Liptapanlop, president of the Lawn Tennis Association of Thailand, was
reportedly thrilled to have Williams and Azarenka to have the top two tennis
players in the world in their country.

"It is an honor to have tennis superstars Serena Williams and Victoria
Azarenka to help promote Thai silk and Thailand," he said.
Across the sporting world, we unavoidably run into female athletes who are
radiant, stunning and classy as they are brilliant and clever at what they
do. Do you think Williams and Azarenka could pass for a fashion model?
The Hua Hin Tennis Exhibition is an exhibition game in women's tennis held at
the start of the year. It started 4 years ago in 2010. Past winners were
Maria Sharapova, Kim Clijsters, Victoria Azarenka, and Li Na.
Azarenka will play in the Hua Hin tournament for the third time. Williams,
meanwhile, will play for the charity tournament for the first time and is
excited to compete in Thailand. "I am really looking forward to it," Williams
told Tennis World USA.
"I've heard fantastic things about Hua Hin and about Thailand," she added.
"I'm excited to see all my Thai fans," Williams said.
Both Williams and Azarenka are expected to fly to Australia after the
tournament in Thailand to participate in the 2014 Brisbane International, and
subsequently to the Australian Open.

Williams and Azarenka hit the beach in Hua Hin
Hua Hin December 29, 2013 1:00 am
Serena Williams teams up with Victoria Azarenka to play beach tennis against
Thailand
World No 1 Serena Williams and No 2 Victoria Azarenka swapped hard courts for
something softer yesterday when they took up the challenge of the Hua Hin
Beach Tennis Championship.
The world's top two briefly suspended their rivalry to team up and face
Thailand's Tamarine Tanasugarn and Noppawan Lertcheewakarn on the sands
behind Centennial Park. The beach match was a warm-up for Williams and
Azarenka's exhibition match on the Centennial courts a few hours later.
Williams, 32, is on her second visit to the Kingdom after a brief visit six
years ago at the invitation of the Lawn Tennis Association following her
Australian Open win.
Both Williams and Azarenka looked pretty comfortable on sand, never losing a
point to the local pair and thrilling beach-goers with the rare sight of the
world's best playing together.
The evening before, both had been strutting the catwalk for the Made in
Thailand Night with Serena & Victoria fashion bash, showcasing outfits
designed by Yuna. Williams, who has a special interest in fashion design,
stepped onto the ramp in a pink Thai-silk evening gown. She then strode down
it with the same confidence she shows chasing down the ball on court.
"It's extremely comfortable. It's a beautiful dress by a talented designer.
We don't really have this material in the United States. It's pretty
amazing," said Williams. After the show, the US star spent time shopping at a
local night market with her entourage, including coach and rumoured boyfriend
Patrick Mouratoglo, who had arrived in Thailand a few hours earlier.
Azarenka, who took to the catwalk here 12 months ago with China's Li Na,
chose to dazzle Hua Hin with a silver-grey silk dress this time round. Unlike
Williams, the Belarussian did not have her significant other, "Red Foo",
watching in the audience.

HUA HIN, Thailand -- Victoria Azarenka beat top-ranked Serena Williams in
straight sets Saturday in an exhibition match between the world's top two
women's players.
The second-ranked Azarenka defeated Williams 7-5, 6-3 in front of about 3,000
fans at the Hua Hin World Tennis Invitation in a match both players used as a
warm-up ahead of the Australian Open.
Azarenka broke for a 6-5 lead in the first set and broke twice in the second
for her second victory at the exhibition event after 2011.
Williams beat Azarenka in the U.S. Open final this year.
The American said the match was "a good warm-up before Australia. Victoria is
a strong player. It's always fun to play someone like her."
