Djokovic Returns Amidst Controversy

20-time Grand Slam title holder Novak Djokovic is back on the tour and on a tennis court for the first time since the ATP Tour Finals in Turin.

While Djokovic has been in the news over the last few weeks, it has been for non-tennis reasons. Being unvaccinated against Covid-19, Djokovic was the center of spotlight with Australian Immigration authorities which resulted in him eventually being deported from Australia and not being allowed to participate in the first major of the year in Melbourne.

He has since spoken to BBC and expressed his views on not planning to be vaccinated for Covid at the moment and even giving up the chance to win more trophies if that is what it takes to stand by his principles.

With the Dubai Open not having such rules and regulations that would prevent him from playing, the five-time title holder here returns to the tournament as the top seed hoping to get his focus and attention back to the sport.

Musetti Hoping To Make a Mark

Lorenzo Musetti arrives in Dubai at the back of two quarter-final runs in Rotterdam and Pune .

Musetti has continued to impress with his skillful play and impressive wins against higher ranked opponents, the win against fourth seed Hubert Hurkacz in Rotterdam being the latest.

The Italian’s start to the season has been impressive and is similar to how the start of 2021 was for him. The latter half of 2021 was below par for Musetti and he will be pleased to have move on from that to how the season has begun.

Musetti had a good run at the Mexico Open in 2021 and has chosen to play the Dubai Open instead this year around. With an opener against Novak Djokovic, the Italian will have his hands full but will look to give it his best with nothing to lose.
