Ons Jabeur, 6th in the world, is expected to play his last meeting of the season against Anett Kontaveit in an exhibition match acting as goodbyes for the Estonian.
Anett Kontaveit, currently 81st in the world but having played his last official match on July 6 in Wimbledon, ended his career due to a lumbar degenerative discopathy, which forces him to say goodbye to tennis at the age of only 27 years.
The Estonian chose Ons Jabeur to play this farewell match. Anett Kontaveit and Ons Jabeur are very good friends on and outside the tennis courts. It is for this reason that the Estonian chose the Tunisian for her last match.
“OnS is the first person who came to my mind and with whom I would really like to play my last match. She is one of the warmest people on the circuit and she has always supported me a lot. I couldn’t think of a better person to play this match, “said Anett Kontaveit a few weeks ago. The duel must take place in Tallinn, his hometown, on November 11.
