What a wonderful day out. Well organised and great value for money.
Small points to note: For the elderly and inferm, access to lower levels of seating would be appreciated.
Also, mixed doubles tennis would be good to watch.

The entrance to the complex was well-organized and smooth. However, exiting the parking lot was very difficult, long, and disorganized.
Excellent had a great time
The most difficult aspect of attending the Qatar Open is being able to open an account and then open and access the account. We had to on multiple occasions contact the central office for help. It was our first time and we had a major concern if the tickets were genuine. Having said that the tickets were very well priced and the event very well organised, with the staff on duty being very helpful. Food and wash room facilities were excellent. Many thanks. Ian
Amazing, well organised event!
Superbly organised.
I attended every session of the DOHA ATP tournament as I have done for the past 4 years. A new schedule was introduced this year with a day session and a night session for the first 4 days. This necessitated clearing the Centre Court between day and night sessions. Thursday’s day matches ran late so it needed to be a quick turnaround for the night session. I was waiting patiently in the queue outside the stadium. The stadium was emptied but many many people (probably around 100) walked out of the stadium but refused to come down the many stairs to ground level to join the queue. People in the queue were asking the many security personnel to clear the stair wells but they made no effort to do so and eventually just told the people on the stairs to go back into the stadium. This caused somewhat of a stampede as the queue surged forward. I am 75 years old and I was knocked over on the stairs. Luckily someone helped me up and I managed to gain entry but the whole experience was upsetting and dangerous. Someone could have been seriously injured. Also I’m guessing some of the people who were waiting in the stairwells may not have had tickets for the night session as no-one had chance to check their tickets in this mad rush.
I love this tournament and travel from the UK to attend. The Alcaraz frenzy is definitely a thing now but QTF must ensure the safety of their attendees in the future.
Just a quick suggestion to make it more comfortable - have an option to hire a seat cushion for the day which would be returned at the end of play; those plastic seats are really uncomfortable.
Fantastic venue for tennis.
The tournament arrangement was excellent . But the day & night ticketing system caused some confusion
Overall a great tournament and interactive and accessible for all. Some issues with organisation of fans for example no seat numbers in middle and upper stands caused issues in semi finals where fans sat on stairs and people used spare seats for bags and coats. Others took people's seats if they got up to go to bathroom etc. Everybody was issued wrist bands for each day of the tournament but were never used in any way and served no purpose. Fans had to show ticket multiple times just to get to their seating zone.
I was working there as a tournament doctor
It was fun filled memories. Love Qatar and sports
Great event, convenient and comfortable, courteous staff
I had a wonderful time, seeing the worlds top tennis players in a fabulous stadium and in an amazing city and country. Thank you so much.
Games are well organized.
Excellent arrangements
Amazing upgrades food and drink. They still need to upgrade bathrooms - they were often out of tissues and did not flush. The parking/ uber pick up is also chaotic and needs specific areas assigned for Rideshare. The event is world class but needs better training of security to remind people about phones, yelling during points and overall general tennis etiquette.
Excellent day out to enjoy top class tennis
This is one of the best tournaments in the world. Well organised, really good food at reasonable prices, really helpful staff and beautiful setting. Now an ATP 500 so it’s attracting the top players.
