Rublev’s confirmation means the championship now boasts five of world’s top 20 male players, along with women’s US Open champion, Emma Raducanu, and fellow Olympic champion Belinda Bencic, lining up for the three-day festival.
The announcement followed the update of COVID-19-related protocols for events, giving fans an unmissable opportunity to swing into the festive season in style. The Mubadala World Tennis Championship is also accessible to international visitors after Abu Dhabi’s recent lifting of quarantine requirements for fully vaccinated visitors.
“It’s really exciting to be heading back to Abu Dhabi and playing in front of the fans there," Rublev said. "They really know their tennis and make a real difference. And, with the event at full capacity it’s going to be a great way to begin a busy 2022 season.”
In line with the latest government guidelines the Championship will welcome fans and spectators with green status on the Al Hosn app and a negative PCR test result with 96- hour validity across three days of exciting tennis action, in a safe and secure environment. Premier Hospitality tickets are available, offering fans a premium F&B menu and courtside seating providing prime viewing and an unparalleled experience.
