This year's Mubadala World Tennis Championship will be held from December 31st to January 2nd and the first two confirmed players are former champion Rafael Nadal and Abu Dhabi debutante Milos Raonic.
The tournament has been held annually since 2009 at Zayed Sports City and has attracted the world's top tennis talent including Nadal, Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray and Tomas Berdych to name just a few.
Last year Murray claimed a second tournament victory but Djokovic leads the way with three Mubadala championship titles.
Speaking ahead of the event, Nadal said: "The Mubadala World Tennis Championship is an event I always enjoy and it’s great to be returning to action with the world’s top players in the UAE capital."
