Tunisia-Ons Jabeur becomes first Arab woman to reach French Open last 16

Ons Jabeur became the first Arab woman to enter the fourth round of the French Open as she Knocked down eighth Aryna Sabalenka 7-6(7) 2-6 6-3 on Saturday.

The 30th seed demonstrated her trademark court ability to weaken Sabalenka’s raw power as she exceeded her previous best third-round display at Roland Garros in 2017.

“She’s such an aggressive player. But then I had to still do a lot of slices, drop shots, mix it up. I knew that could bother her a lot. I’m so happy that my game really worked today,” Jabeur said.
