Record crowd watched Clijsters beat Serena

Tennis Betting Lines

07/09/2010 - Brussels, Belgium (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The largest crowd to ever watch a tennis match saw Belgian Kim Clijsters beat Wimbledon champion Serena Williams in an exhibition bout Thursday in Brussels.

The former world No. 1 Clijsters topped the currently top-ranked Williams 6-3, 6-2 in front of 35,681 people at King Baudouin Stadium. The previous record for a tennis match was 30,472 back in 1973 when Billie Jean King defeated Bobby Riggs in the "Battle of the Sexes" at the Houston Astrodome.

Clijsters was originally scheduled to meet fellow Belgian star Justine Henin in the "Best of Belgium," but Henin pulled out of the event last week after suffering an elbow injury against Clijsters in a fourth-round match at Wimbledon. Williams, who captured her fourth career Wimbledon title last week, played Thursday despite nursing a foot injury.

The Clijsters-Williams affair was umpired by the legendary Martina Navratilova.
