Tee-time in dubai

Next week's Dubai Desert Classic is expected to bring sports fans from around the world into the emirate city...

Beginning on January 29th at the Emirates Golf Club, the European Tour-sanctioned golf event will see some of the world's top players compete for a prize pool of £1.8 million.

The profile of the tournament has already been raised with the confirmation that players such as Ernie Els, Sergio Garica and Lee Westwood will be present in Dubai.

Westwood, who works as an ambassador for organisers Golf in Dubai, said that the tournament has become an important date on the calendar of professional golf.

"The Dubai Desert Classic's a big event which attracts the world's leading players each year. The event is getting worldwide recognition," the English player commented.

"We are expected to tell everybody how good it is. But we don't have much to tell really, because Dubai sells itself."

Although property prices have fallen in Dubai recently, propertwire.com has claimed that such drops are set to benefit the market by having a stabilising effect.
