Thursday, 10 October 2019 12:09

Rafael Nadal’s 10th appearance at the Mubadala World Tennis Championship in Abu Dhabi is going to be an extra special occasion.

Anyone who buys a ticket for the event over the next 10 days stands a chance to win one of 10 pieces of memorabilia signed by the man himself.

The tickets purchased will automatically be entered into a draw and a lucky winner will be chosen daily.

This year’s tournament runs from December 19-21 at Zayed Sports City, and Rafa says he can’t wait to join his fans in the UAE.

The left-handed superstar will be looking to land a record fifth title. He is currently tied on four victories with Novak Djokovic.
