Sunday at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships was busy with first-round matches, but our Jimmie48 spent the day with top players who enjoy first-round byes or open on Monday, so our Sunday’s gallery is mostly about practice sessions and off-court happenings. The only match we have photos of is Garbine Muguruza‘s three-set victory over Dayana Yastremska.
Karolina Pliskova, Aryna Sabalenka, Petra Kvitova, Kiki Bertens, Elina Svitolina, Carla Suarez Navarro, Angelique Kerber, and Julia Goerges were all spotted by the lens of our Jimmie48, either practicing or talking to the media during the All Access Hour. As for world No.1 Naomi Osaka, besides giving interviews and revealing the reason behind the unexpected split with coach Sascha Bajin, the Japanese also took some time to prepare a salmon salad with a chef.
