I Just Love Dubai: Jankovic
The noise at the arena will reach a crescendo each time Jelena plays at the WTA Dubai Tennis Championship, which will begin on Sunday.
The former world number one, while talking to a few scribes after the draw ceremony at the Dubai Tennis Stadium, revealed what would help her make telling statements on the court.
“The crowd support,” said the 24-year-old, “is just amazing every time I play in Dubai. They really motivate me to perform well each time I play.”
“I just love Dubai. I am so glad to be back here again. I am looking forward to play here. It’s one of my favourite tournaments. I love the people. And I want to come here for many more years,” Jankovic, who received a first-round bye, said.
Dubai is actually an ‘away home’ for the Serbian stars. The large number of Serbian expats each year makes it a ‘Davis Cup’ like atmosphere at the Dubai Tennis Stadium. Even last year’s men’s winner Novak Djokovic didn’t forget to thank the loyal fans after his straight-set win in the final over David Ferrer
of Spain.
