World number 5 and finalist of the last edition of the US Open, the Tunisian Ons Jabeur was swept by Qinwen Zheng from the round of 16 of the American Grand Slam this Monday evening: 6-2, 6-4
The two players clashed once in the past, in August 2022 during the 2nd round of the Toronto tournament. Ons Jabeur qualified following the abandonment on the injury of Qinwen Zheng who then led 6-1 and 2-1.
Finalist of the 2022 edition of the US Open, Ons Jabeur had to put the double bites, but obviously, his state of health did not allow him to go far in this edition.
In the 1st round, she hardly beat the Colombian Maria Camila Osorio (68th in the world) in two sets (7-5, 7-6). It was then laboriously imposed in the 2nd round against the Czech Linda Noskova (41st in the WTA ranking) in three sets (7-6, 4-6, 6-3).
On Sunday, she eliminated the Czech Marie Bouzkova (31st) not without difficulty after having fought a battle of almost three hours to eliminate it in three sets (5-7, 7-6 and 6-3).
