Serena Williams has agreed to join the all-star cast for the sixth annual Mardy’s Tennis & Jake’s Music Fest on Friday, December 9.

Williams will be Mardy Fish’s doubles partner in a third exhibition match at the Grand Harbor Golf and Beach Club in Vero Beach, Florida.

“She is a fierce competitor and one of the all-time greats of our sport and I’m so excited that our hometown crowd will get to see her in action,” Fish said of Williams, who will remain in Vero Beach over the weekend to take in Saturday night’s concert.

“I’m just glad I won’t be playing against her,” he admitted.

The tennis exhibition lineup now has Fish facing Sam Querrey in the first match at 7:30 p.m., followed by a doubles match between Fish-Querrey and Mike and Bob Bryan. Fish will then team up with Williams against a doubles team that has yet to be announced. It is expected that Melanie Oudin will play in the doubles match.
