Israeli Tennis Player Banned From Dubai.

February 17th, 2009

Dubai could lose its place on the Women’s Tennis Association Tour calendar after Israeli Shahar Peer was denied entry to compete at this week’s event, the WTA supremo warned Monday. Sharar Peer told CNN she learnt of her visa ban on Saturday, just before her scheduled flight to Dubai.

Peer was scheduled to fly into the United Arab Emirates on Sunday, but was informed Saturday night by telephone that she would not be granted a visa.

WTA Chairman and CEO Larry Scott said the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour “will review appropriate future actions with regard to the future of the Dubai tournament.”
