The Guide
Tournament Overview
Dubai is a WTA 1000 event on outdoor hard courts at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Stadium, part of the Aviation Club. The women play the week after Doha, and the men’s ATP 500 follows in the same stadium — see our <a href="/tournaments/atp-tour/atp-dubai">ATP Dubai hub</a> for that half of the fortnight. As one of the ten mandatory WTA 1000 tournaments it carries 1,000 ranking points for the champion and counts toward the Race to the WTA Finals.
