Anna Kournikova, Andre Agassi, Billie Jean King, and other tennis greats rallied for charity at WTT Smash Hits at American University in Washington, D.C., raising more than $500,000 for the Elton John AIDS Foundation and the Washington AIDS Partnership. In its 18-year history, WTT Smash Hits has raised more than $10 million for the Elton John AIDS Foundation and local charities throughout the U.S. Captained by longtime friends Billie Jean King and Sir Elton John, the Smash Hits players formed two teams with legends and stars of tennis, including Martina Navratilova, Andre Agassi, Anna Kournikova and Stefanie Graf, and faced off in a modified World TeamTennis match. Team Billie Jean defeated Team Elton John 19-15 to tie their overall series at 9-9.
