The Khalifa International Tennis and Squash Complex in Doha has started to wear a new look in preparation for the 2018 Qatar ExxonMobil Open.

The prestigious tournament will be held from January 1 to 6, 2018.

Ahead of the tournament, necessary branding materials are already being put in place and the courts are getting the required facelifts in readiness for the tournament.

The Qatar Tennis, Squash and Badminton Federation (QTSBF), under the dynamic leadership of His Excellency Nasser Al Khelaifi, is leaving no stone unturned in ensuring yet another very successful week-long feast of tennis.

Former world No. 1 Novak Djokovic will be leading a star cast which includes Dominic Thiem, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Tomas Berdych, Richard Gasquet and Fernando Verdasco as well as Pablo Carreno Busta, to the event.

Tournament Director Karim Alami said, “We are set to host the world once again. Qatar ExxonMobil Open has earned the reputation of being one of the best organised tournaments on the ATP tour and this year won’t be an exception. Fans are guaranteed the best of entertainment as they watch their beloved stars slug it out on the courts at the Khalifa International Tennis and Squash Complex.”
