with Victoria Azarenka
. Pe'er has won five WTA singles titles, and three WTA doubles titles.

At the age of 19, Pe'er joined the Israeli military

, and her afternoons practicing tennis.
by the United Arab Emirates
(UAE), which denied her a visa
. The UAE does not have diplomatic relations with Israel.
A number of players, among them Venus Williams
, condemned the visa rejection. The 2008 winner of the men's singles, Andy Roddick
, withdrew from the tournament and chose not to defend his title (with prize money of over $2 million) to protest the UAE's refusal to grant Pe'er a visa. "I really didn't agree with what went on over there", Roddick said. In protest, the Tennis Channel decided not to televise the event and The Wall Street Journal
dropped its sponsorship. WTA chief Larry Scott
said that he had considered cancelling the tournament, but chose not to after consulting Pe'er.
Tournament director Salah Tahlak said that Pe'er was refused on the grounds that her appearance could incite anger in the Arab country after she had already faced protests at the ASB Classic over the 2008–2009 Israel–Gaza conflict

To add to the pressure, the tournament took place at the time when Dubai authorities were investigating the killing
of Hamas
military commander Mahmoud al-Mabhouh
, which the UAE blamed on Israeli agents posing as European nationals. Pe'er was widely praised by her fellow competitors for her composure under pressure during the tournament. In particular, Venus Williams remarked: "I can't imagine playing so well with these kinds of circumstances. I just have to give her congratulations and props. She's courageous.

In particular, Venus Williams remarked: "I can't imagine playing so well with these kinds of circumstances. I just have to give her congratulations and props. She's courageous. I don't think anyone else on the WTA Tour could do what she's doing".
Playing style
Pe'er originally played with a "counter-puncher" style, but by 2010 she had adopted a more attacking style of play. Her forehand uses a semi-western grip, which makes her good in facing big top-spin opponents. Her backhand is two-handed and is one of the best on the women's tour. It is consistent and finds various angles throughout the court. She loves to take lots of points with the inside out shot on her backhand. She originally used a kick serve that lacked the drive needed to penetrate deep, but she changed it to more of a slice serve, which works great for her now and even generates aces. She has a good volley and doesn't have a problem going to the net. During matches, she often turns her back to her opponent between points, faces the back of the court, closes her eyes and tries to wipe the mental slate clean.Early years
