The pair join former world No.1 and reigning French Open women’s champion Ana Ivanovic at what is shaping up as a star-studded event.

“It is the perfect way to begin my Australian campaign. I have heard great things about Brisbane but never had the opportunity to visit,” Djokovic said.

The Queensland event will be held at the State tennis centre from the 4th-11th January 2009.
