Williams sisters to play exhibition in Medellin

Venus and Serena Williams will play an exhibition tennis match in the northern Colombian city of Medellin in November.

The sisters, who have won 20 grand slam singles titles between them, will appear in the South American country for the first time, says Jhan Fontalvo, head of the company promoting the event.

Both players have slipped down the rankings following recent injury problems, with Serena currently No. 29 and older sister Venus at No. 36.

The exhibition match will take place on Nov. 23 at the La Macarena events center.
