Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships tournament fourth seed Agnieszka Radwanska took some time out yesterday to enjoy a trip along the new Dubai Canal. Radwanska, the world number six, and 2012 Dubai champion, toured part of the 3.2km waterway which was opened in November 2016 in a RTA luxury water taxi operated by Excellence Limos. Radwanska marveled at the waterfall, lit with bright pink lights, where the Canal meets the Sheikh Zayed Road bridge.

The WTA event, which features US Open champion and world number two Angelique Kerber, 2017 Brisbane and Doha champion Karolina Pliskova, WTA Finals winner Dominika Cibulkova, French Open champion Garbine Muguruza, along with Radwanska, continues until 25th February, and is followed by the 25th staging of the ATP World Tour event from 27th February until 4th March. The ATP event features Wimbledon, Olympic and ATP World Tour Finals champion and world number one Andy Murray, Australian Open champion and seven-time Dubai winner Roger Federer, defending Dubai champion Stan Wawrinka, two-time Dubai finalist Tomas Berdych and the entertaining Gael Monfils.
