The Williams sisters are two of the biggest superstars in the game and to have both of them returning to Dubai is great news for everyone.

It will be a fantastic tournament and we are sure we will have a full stadium when they play.

The response to this competition just shows the huge popularity this event enjoys among the people of the UAE.

Both within the family and without, our sisters hold up our mirrors: our images of who we are and of who we can dare to be.

I think these kids got it now. I think they have really gotten the concept on defense; the offense has been good, but not consistent all year long, and I think they got it this week. It's what happens with kids, and it's what happens with good teams that practice hard. Sooner or later, they absorb what you're trying to teach them, and instead of doing what you tell them, they do what they know how to do.

Their week was completely nuts. You could have teams going, 'I don't know what the hell to do now.' These guys pulled together. It was just awe-inspiring. I'm in awe of what they did.
