Back on the Berlin lawn, Ons Jabeur faces the Italian Jasmine Paolini on Wednesday, seeded n ° 2 of the tournament. An expected duel to follow from 12:30 p.m. (Tunisian time) on Sky Sport 1.
This Wednesday, June 18, the Tunisian Ons Jabeur finds the courts of the Berlin WTA 500 tournament for a shock against Jasmine Paolini, current world n ° 5. The match, counting for the round of 16, will start at 12:30 p.m. (Tunisian time) and will be broadcast on the Sky Sport 1 channel.
Recovered from qualifying, Jabeur signed a great introduction by eliminating the American Caroline Dolehide (63rd in the world) in two controlled sets (7-6, 6-1). An encouraging performance for the world world, which seeks to regain its best level after a season marked by injuries and irregularities.
Faced with her, Paolini represents a major challenge. The Italian, in full ascent, remains on two consecutive victories against Jabeur this season, first in Miami, then more recently in Rome. The Tunisian will therefore be keen to take revenge on a surface that she particularly likes: she had won the title in Berlin in 2022.
