Tweet of the week
Ever wonder how the Formula One drivers spend their week leading up to a race weekend? While some came early to the UAE and had a couple of days of R&R, others were training at their respective bases before flying to Abu Dhabi where the championship will be decided on Sunday.

Golfers get the party started a little early
The world’s best golfers are all in Dubai, stationed at the Atlantis hotel, for the DP World Tour Championship. And for some of them, the flight over was quite the party.
Another tough Monday on the European tour. pic.twitter.com/m5H97jZT81

So Cristiano Ronaldo has released a line of shirts. That doesn’t explain the ridiculous nine faces he’s pulling in the ad though. Tennis star Martina Hingis is in India for the Champions Tennis League. LeBron James shows us what his Sunday off looks like.
Hey guys. My #CR7shirts collection is now available in stores. How exciting! Visit http://t.co/VUOf12QmLv pic.twitter.com/pEi0WRZvor
