Kei Nishikori and The Flying Cup

February 26, 2019 - Dubai, UAE

Tennis star Kei Nishikori is in Dubai for the first time making his debut at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships. Before he stepped foot on Centre Court, the Japanese No. 1, took this opportunity to explore Dubai and visited The Flying Cup in Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR). The tourist attraction raises to the height of a 12-story building, offering magnificent panoramic views of The Beach, JBR, Ain Dubai and Palm Jumeirah. Kei was joined by his Coach and it was clear that he was not scared of heights and spent time taking in the scenery: “I’m usually okay on heights, it just depends how high. So many high buildings, I feel like all the buildings are very creative, everything is very beautiful, nice beaches, very nice.”
