Frenchman Fabrice Santoro is playing for the last time in Dubai, but he promises to return once his career is done.
"It's been normal for me to come here in February, since 17 years," said the runner-up at the inaugural edition in 1993. But all good things have to come to an end.
"I'll be 37 at the end of the year, It's time to maybe try to do something else. Even if I love my job, I have to take a decision one day."
Santoro promised: "I'll be back to Dubai. Not as a player probably, but I'll be back to Dubai. I've been doing this for 21 years, and I feel very lucky.
"When I started, I never thought I could do it for more than ten years." He admitted that his biggest regret will be missing the Grand Slams and "playing in front of the French crowd."
Santoro's first order of business after likely shifting his post-tennis base from Geneva to Paris will be to stay put. "Doing 'something else' means sleeping in my bed first. That's something that's not normal for me."
