tournament draw
We have one of the legendary tournaments on the ATP circuit this week in February. Years ago it was a place that was well known when it was played because it was played in the first week of the season. It has always had very good players and the ATP 250 tournament has had a very high player count and this season will be no less. As a prelude to the ATP 500 in Dubai, as they already do on the women’s circuit, many players are taking advantage of this tournament in this wonderful place.
Russian tennis player Andrei Rublev is the main candidate for the title by appearing in the top positions. In addition, he already knows what it is to win the championship, because he did it in the 2020 season. However, the current champion is a Spaniard Roberto Bautista who is also there to win a very tough painting and tries again to attack the scepter granted to him by the owner of the place. The 2021 champion, on the other hand, has no choice but to compete in the qualifying stage. His ranking has earned him a place in this table and if he wants to do that, he will have to do it by winning two games over the weekend.
Felix Auger Aliassime, Daniil Medvedev or Alexander Zverev They are tennis players who arrive in Doha and want to increase the conditions. Especially the German who still shows lack of confidence and wants to take minutes on the track. Among the guests we have the British Andy Murray who has already won the tournament in 2008 and 2009, Fernando Verdasco and a young player from Jordan who is dazzling Abdullah Shelbayh.
