Ons Jabert also failed to win her maiden Grand Slam title at the 2023 US Open as the Tunisian was knocked out in the round of 16 by Qinwen Zheng.
Ons Jaber defeated Qinwen Zheng at the 2023 US Open
A finalist at Flushing Meadows last year, Jaber lost to the WTA No. 23 Chinese 6-2, 6-4 after an hour and 23 minutes of play.
Ons, a two-time Wimbledon finalist (2022, 2023), committed almost twice as many unforced errors as her opponent (33-17) and struggled on serve (she won 47% of her first serve points and 41% of her second serve ).
Zheng will meet Aryna Sabalenko (2nd favorite and future WTA leader) for a place in the semi-finals, after the athlete from Belarus clearly defeated Russian Daria Kasatkina (13) with a score of 6-1, 6-3.
Qinwen showed the best performance of her career at the Grand Slam tournaments (previously she reached the 1/8 finals of Roland Garros-2022).
