Ekaterina Alexandrova's season has been marked by a significant contrast between a peak performance reaching the Abu Dhabi final and a series of early exits in subsequent tournaments, including Doha. Her recent results have raised questions about her consistency and readiness for upcoming events. Despite a favorable draw as the No. 8 seed in Dubai, her performance will depend on her ability to adapt to faster courts and lower bounce conditions, which could favor her aggressive style of play. Match strategies will likely focus on early initiative and tactical flexibility, with her success impacting her rankings and confidence. Her recent defeats, particularly in Doha, highlight the need for sharper serving, improved movement, and mental resilience to maintain her form throughout the season. Dubai presents an opportunity for her to stabilize her position and demonstrate her peak tennis, but her ability to convert glimpses of brilliance into consistent results will be closely watched. The next matches will be critical in determining whether her season trends toward recovery or further turbulence.
