In preparation for the Dubai Duty Free Men’s Open, tennis legend, Andre Agassi and the world No. 1, Roger Federer, couldn’t resist the temptation to have a friendly knock about on the world’s highest tennis court, the helipad of Burj Al Arab, the world’s most luxurious hotel.Both players are in Dubai to compete in the US$1 million Dubai Duty Free Men’s Open, which is the first round of the two-week Dubai Tennis Championships.

Yes that is that hotel in the emirates advert...Its only the most expensive hotel in the world,with the best rooms at £10,000 per night! ...I will be staying there once i win the lottery!

I've highlighted with arrow the helipad at the top where they played the tennis match!
