Interesting, I hope Serena is fully healed. I would hate for her to still be playing injured and tweak something.
I wasn't saying it as a negative thing that she would go to the money but no as many of you said she would not be playing every tournament if she was playing for the money. The reality is much of the money top players are making is beyond prize money and actually in appearance fees. EVERYBODY knows that the middle eastern tournaments (Dubai and Doha) have big middle eastern money behind them to pay for appearance fees.
Serena does NOT need the points from Dubai. Come on she is so far beyond anyone else that she could take a break till the French Open and be fine.
If she's playing for history as one of you said and not for money than she would be playing only premier and grand slam events. Nobody is going to remember if Serena Williams won Dubai in 2014.
I agree Serena is very frugal (have you seen the house she and Venus share?). She has enough money, PLENTY of money but there's no problem with a player taking the opportunity to get a big check for an appearance fee. She's earned it.

What was I saying here?... What was that?... I cant hear yyyou...
Venus and Serena made the quarter finals of Dubai, being in the opposite parts of the draw, they can actually meet in the Finals.
Here is food for thought all you stat freaks, me included.
When was the last time both sisters accepted wild cards to the same premier level tourny?
