What Happened in the 2025 Edition of the WTA Dubai?

Mirra Andreeva won the 2025 WTA Dubai title making it her second at the tour level and the first WTA 1000 tournament victory for her. It also made her the youngest to win a WTA 1000 title since with Andreeva having not turned 18 when she grabbed the victory.

Following wins over Elina Avanesyan, Marketa Vondrousova and Peyton Stearns in the first three rounds, Andreeva then shocked Iga Swiatek in straight sets to reach the semifinals.

There she overcame Elena Rybakina in three sets before going past Clara Tauson in the final to clinch the victory.

World number one and top seeded Aryna Sabalenka was defeated in the third round by Tauson while the third seeded Coco Gauff lost to McCartney Kessler in the second.

What Happened in the 2024 Edition of the WTA Dubai?

In an event that had Iga Swiatek, Aryna Sabalenka, Cori Gauff, Elena Rybakina and a host of other such top players in the draw, it was a near-shock to see Jasmine Paolini take on Russian qualifier Anna Kalinskaya in the final.

In the end, it was Paolini who took the title, kick-starting a season that would see her match the finals at the French Open and Wimbledon as well.

Paolini came back from a set down to clinch her second title on the women’s circuit, beating Kalinskaya 4-6, 7-5, 7-5.

Kalinskaya had earlier taken down Swiatek in the semifinals, after having sent Cori Gauff packing in the quarterfinals. Paolini was helped by a walkover from Rybakina after having gotten past Maria Sakkari in the previous round.
