Sania Mirza will be the drawcard in the Showdown of Champions on Dec 19-20 at the Malawati Stadium in Shah Alam. The showdown will also feature China's Zheng Jie and Russian duo Elena Dementieva and Maria Kirilenko.
The tennis beauties will not only dazzle with their skills, but also with their attire.
This is the first time WTA Tour players will play an exhibition in Malaysia as the previous two years featured ATP stars.
World No 5 Elena is a seasoned campaigner on the tour, having won 16 WTA titles and also the gold medal in last year's Beijing Olympics while Maria, who was World No 18 last year, is a rising star.

Zheng Jie's prowess is in doubles and her most memorable year was in 2006 when she and Yan Zi won two Grand Slam titles (Australian Open and Wimbledon).
This year, she created history by becoming the first China player to reach the Wimbledon semi-finals.
Sania, who won the mixed doubles gold with Leander Paes in the 2006 Doha Asian Games, has won one singles and eight doubles titles on the WTA Tour.
