Doha: Tennis excitement is reaching new heights at the Qatar ExxonMobil Open 2025, as fans share special moments with their favorite players at the ExxonMobil Qatar stand in the tournament’s Public Village.
This year marks a significant milestone as it is the first time the tournament is held as an ATP500 event, showcasing top-tier talent and elevating the competition to new levels.
The partnership between ExxonMobil Qatar and the Qatar Tennis Federation (QTF) has been instrumental in achieving this transformation, demonstrating a shared commitment to promoting tennis in Qatar and enhancing the overall experience for players and fans alike.
Between matches, tennis stars like Carlos Alcaraz, Andrey Rublev, Jack Draper, Karen Khachanov, Felix Auger-Aliassime, and Jamie Murray, have been stopping by the ExxonMobil Qatar stand to connect with fans and take part in the fun, including the popular full-size racing car simulator.
These surprise visits have been a highlight for fans with top players taking the time to sign tennis balls and capture photos with excited supporters.
As the title sponsor, ExxonMobil Qatar brings unique experiences to both fans and employees. Employees enjoy the special honour of performing the pre-match coin toss, adding an exciting touch to each game’s start.
Young fans from the ExxonMobil Qatar community also participate in a kids’ clinic organised by QTF and led by renowned tennis players. This hands-on session allows children to sharpen their skills with guidance from these stars, which inspires a passion for the sport.
“It’s incredible to see the energy from fans who bring such enthusiasm to the tournament,” said Rashid Al Hajri, Vice President and Manager of Public and Government Affairs for ExxonMobil Qatar.
“Their support lifts the players, and we’re thrilled to create a space at our stand where everyone can connect and share in the excitement. These connections are an essential part of our partnership with Qatar Tennis Federation and contribute significantly to the tournament's success. We take great pride inhelping to bring this outstanding event to Qatar,” he added.
