BOGOTA, COLOMBIA (AP) - Serena Williams will face sister Venus in an exhibition in Colombia on Wednesday, her first match since losing the U.S. Open final two months ago.

Serena leads Venus 13-10 in competitive head-to-head matches, and both sisters pledged to play hard during the match at Medellin.

Venus hasn’t played since pulling out of the U.S. Open in September because of an immune system disease. Serena’s last match was her loss to Samantha Stosur in the title match.

Serena says Tuesday they’ll put on a “great show,” while Venus says she hopes her sister “doesn’t play as well as normal.”
