The final of the Dubai Tennis Championships between Novak Djokovic and Mikhail Youzhny will finish on Sunday after inclement weather forced the abandonment of play on Saturday with Djokovic leading 7-5 2-0.

Both players struggled with their service game in an error-strewn first set, with Djokovic's three breaks compensating for his inaccurate serve. The Serbian sent down three double faults, while just 48% of his first serves were legitimate deliveries.

Play was initially suspended for 32 minutes after a deluge at the start of the second set. The players returned to the court briefly before rain again forced them off.
