Returning tennis great Kim Clijsters has just accepted a wild card to play the 2020 Dubai Tennis Championships next week. This is earlier than her anticipated comeback in a couple of month’s time.

I’m accepting a wild card to play the 2020 Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships. Since announcing my comeback, there have been a few bumps but I’m looking forward to returning to the match court and what this next chapter brings …

Thank you to my team, friends, family and all my fans for all their encouragement these past weeks.

See you next week in Dubai! #fortheloveofthegame #wta”

Late last year, the former world number has announced that she will be competing once more on the professional tour.
