Coco Gauff, Iga Swiatek, Emma Raducanu, and other WTA stars recently turned heads on the purple carpet at the 2025 Dubai Tennis Championships players' party. The players are battling it out for the coveted trophy at the WTA 1000 event, scheduled to be held from February 16 to 22.
World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka has entered the tournament as the top seed, while Swiatek leads the bottom half of the draw. Both players will be on the hunt for their maiden titles at the WTA 1000 event in Dubai. However, the duo will face tough competition from the likes of Gauff, Elena Rybakina, Jessica Pegula, and defending champion Jasmine Paolini.
The players recently took a break from the competition to attend the glamorous players' party at the Dubai Tennis Championships. Coco Gauff made a stylish appearance in a chic blue top and wide-legged denim jeans, pairing her outfit with a white and red cherry-patterned handbag for a pop of color.
