It will be Murray's first Dubai appearance since he defeated Fernando Verdasco to capture the 2017 Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championship. Murray has a history of Dubai success: he toppled then world No. 1 Roger Federer in his 2008 Dubai debut.
Murray joins world No. 1 Novak Djokovic, Andrey Rublev, Felix Auger-Aliassime, Denis Shapovalov, Jannik Sinner and defending champion Aslan Karatsev in the field. Dubai does not require players to be vaccinated to play the event, which is why Djokovic can make his 2022 ATP debut in Dubai this month.
