Wozniacki holds the trophy at the Australian Open.

Mike and Bob Bryan last week held the Fore Love event and the players who were involved have been revealed as it made £1.2m for charity.

On the first day players played a pro-am golf tournament and the next day it was pro-am tennis where players participated.

Sofia Kenin, Caroline Wozniacki and Coco Gauff were among those who did as did Jim Courier who said that there is nothing better than giving back.

"Anytime we’re able to give back as athletes, we're lucky," said Courier.

"There's a culture in both golf and tennis where everyone helps each other for events like this. It’s a fabulous culture. This is a busy time of the year for everyone, getting ready for the new year, but there’s nothing more important than giving back and doing good. We’re all doing that here… Why not say yes to that?"
