This bracket is the Dubai Tennis Championships 2026, played on hard courts in Dubai from 13 Feb to 21 Feb 2026, with 56 players entered and the top 8 seeds skipping the first round.
Jessica Pegula won 5 matches to take the 2026 title, beating Clara Tauson, Amanda Anisimova and Elina Svitolina over the closing rounds.
Elina Svitolina came the same distance on the other half of the sheet, 4 wins before the final, which finished 6-2, 6-4.
15 of the matches above carry a full score here: 7 finished in straight sets and 8 went to a third. The hardest of them was Antonia Ruzic against Elena Rybakina, 3 sets in the round of 16. Best of three across all 55 matches, which is how the Dubai Tennis Championships fits a full draw into February.
Reading the Dubai Tennis Championships bracket
This is a draw of 56, so the top 8 seeds skip the first round and 55 matches decide the title. The number in front of a name is where the tournament seeded that player, a Q is a qualifier, and the raised digit after a set records the tie-break, all of it set out in the draws guide.
The Dubai Tennis Championships page has the dates, the surface and the broadcasters.
The rest of the hard court, start of season
The draws either side of this one belong to Australian Open, Qatar Open, Indian Wells Open and Miami Open, close enough in the calendar that the same names keep arriving in the same rounds.
