Mubadala Abu Dhabi Open: Confirmed players, dates and how to get tickets



Abu Dhabi has been added to the WTA Tour's annual calendar, which means a professional tennis tournament will be held in the capital every year. Ahead of the inaugural event, here is everything you need to know about the 2023 Mubadala Abu Dhabi Open.

What is it?

The 2023 Mubadala Abu Dhabi Open is a WTA Tour tennis tournament. It is a 500-level event, placing it behind only the four Grand Slams and the Masters 1000 tournaments in level of importance.

Where is it?

The Mubadala Abu Dhabi Open will be held at the International Tennis Centre at Zayed Sports City.

When is it?

The main draw action begins on Monday, February 6 and concludes with the final on Sunday, February 12.

Who's playing?

A competitive field makes up the inaugural Mubadala Abu Dhabi Open, including nine of the world's top 20. The top-ranked player in the field presently is world No 8 Daria Kasatkina from Russia, while Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina, ranked 10th, will be among the favourites after her impressive run to the Australian Open final.

The Kazakh will be one of five Grand Slam champions in Abu Dhabi, with two-time major winner Garbine Muguruza, 2017 French Open champion Jelena Ostapenko, 2021 Roland Garros winner Barbora Krejcikova, and 2019 US Open champion Bianca Andreescu also in the line-up.

Other notable names include former world No 1 Karolina Pliskova and Olympic champion Belinda Bencic.

Tunisian superstar Ons Jabeur had been expected to headline the event but the world No 3 withdrew due to injury.

Hasn't Abu Dhabi hosted tennis before?

The capital has been hosting the annual Mubadala World Tennis Championships (MWTC) for the past 14 years, and in 2021 the one-off Abu Dhabi WTA Women's Tennis Open was created to help get the season up and running amid major scheduling issues because of the pandemic.

However, while MWTC routinely attracts the biggest names in the game, it is a pre-season exhibition tournament, so no ranking points are available. The Mubadala Abu Dhabi Open, by comparison, is an officially-sanctioned tournament with progressive prize money and ranking points up for grabs.

And compared to its 2021 predecessor, the Mubadala Abu Dhabi Open is here to stay and will be staged every year.

Are tickets available?

Tickets for the Mubadala Abu Dhabi Open are available at ticketmaster.ae.

How to watch on TV in the UAE?

All matches will be available to watch on Abu Dhabi TV across the Mena region.

Electoral College Victory

Trump has so far secured 295 Electoral College votes, according to the Associated Press, exceeding the 270 needed to win. Only Nevada and Arizona remain to be called, and both swing states are leaning Republican. Trump swept all five remaining swing states, North Carolina, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, sealing his path to victory and giving him a strong mandate. 

 

Popular Vote Tally

The count is ongoing, but Trump currently leads with nearly 51 per cent of the popular vote to Harris’s 47.6 per cent. Trump has over 72.2 million votes, while Harris trails with approximately 67.4 million.

How to come clean about financial infidelity
  • Be honest and transparent: It is always better to own up than be found out. Tell your partner everything they want to know. Show remorse. Inform them of the extent of the situation so they know what they are dealing with.
  • Work on yourself: Be honest with yourself and your partner and figure out why you did it. Don’t be ashamed to ask for professional help. 
  • Give it time: Like any breach of trust, it requires time to rebuild. So be consistent, communicate often and be patient with your partner and yourself.
  • Discuss your financial situation regularly: Ensure your spouse is involved in financial matters and decisions. Your ability to consistently follow through with what you say you are going to do when it comes to money can make all the difference in your partner’s willingness to trust you again.
  • Work on a plan to resolve the problem together: If there is a lot of debt, for example, create a budget and financial plan together and ensure your partner is fully informed, involved and supported.

What is graphene?

Graphene is extracted from graphite and is made up of pure carbon.

It is 200 times more resistant than steel and five times lighter than aluminum.

It conducts electricity better than any other material at room temperature.

It is thought that graphene could boost the useful life of batteries by 10 per cent.

Graphene can also detect cancer cells in the early stages of the disease.

The material was first discovered when Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov were 'playing' with graphite at the University of Manchester in 2004.
