Jasmine Paolini hails Ons Jabeur as ‘one of the best players in the world’ after beating her in straight sets at the Stuttgart Open
Ons Jabeur, the Tunisian pro, who made it to three Grand Slam finals last year, failed even to cross the second round of several tournaments this year. From the start of the year, she has failed to make an impact on the tour and is yet to play her best.
Ever since Abu Dhabi, Jabeur had not even won a single match. Four tournaments later, the Tunisian still remained winless. Entering the Stuttgart Open, Jabeur won her first match after a tight game of tennis. From a set down, she made her way back into the contest and booked her spot in the next round.
