- Tunisian triumphs 6-7 (5), 6-4, 6-3 in epic semi-final
- Jabeur, last year’s runner-up, will face Vondrousova on Saturday
Earlier this year, long after her unforgettable trailblazing run to her maiden grand slam final, Ons Jabeur was forced to relive the joy, hope and eventual pain of that fortnight once more. As she and her husband, Karim, watched the episode of Netflix’s Break Point that chronicled her run, they both cried.
The wounds were still fresh, the pain still with her; she would have to return this year to win it all.
