ATP Aids Stranded Players in Dubai as Evacuation Options Emerge Before Indian Wells

The ATP says a small group remains in Dubai under a travel freeze, with departures to proceed only when conditions allow.

Overview

  • ATP officials confirmed Monday that a limited number of players and team members are still in Dubai and are receiving support in tournament accommodations.
  • Commercial flights out of Dubai have been halted since Saturday due to regional hostilities, according to multiple reports.
  • Media reports say Daniil Medvedev and Andrey Rublev are preparing to travel by road to Oman to board a private plane, with possible routes toward Turkey or Armenia, a plan not officially confirmed.
  • Reporting from La Nueva describes a developing evacuation effort for more than 40 people that could involve moving to Riyadh for a charter flight to Istanbul.
  • Participation in Indian Wells remains uncertain for those affected, with the main draw beginning Wednesday and travel assessments ongoing; Medvedev has indicated he is safe and staying at a friend's apartment.
