Kenin, who is in Abu Dhabi for the WTA season opener, noted, “This bubble isn’t the easiest thing, the rules are quite harsh.” The world No. 4 added, “We are able to compete, we have to be grateful for that. It’s not an ideal situation, we can’t walk around the city, but at the same time, I am happy to be travelling.”
