What is actually the reason that Nadal refers the tournament in Mexico over the one in Dubai?
~snip
it is probably sponsors
Nadal is playing in Mexico, since that is Spanish speaking country, and sponsors probably like it that way, while Djokovic is better suited on Middle East and Far East (he often have sponsors from Japan, Uniqlo for a long time)
nevertheless, Djokovic will vouch for Nadal, since Medvedev could be first if win in Acapulco
, will be interesting to see his performance in Dubai after all the drama

I think the question is more why Djokovic is playing in Dubai? I guess he can't go to Mexico cause of covid pass.
Djokovic plays Dubai every season, probably sponsors as well
Yes, interesting to see Djokovic playing today against Musetti. Looking at the
schedule for Dubai it looks like some of the "Big Names" are there, Rublev,
Sinner, Shapovalov, Bautista Agut, Basilashvili and Murray.
The Top6
bar Djokovic are in Mexico so he has a good chance of
winning Dubai and the others in Mexico dont have to face him.
I have a good few micro bets on favourites for both tournaments, the usual
suspects to win.
