A winning return for Jabeur in Brisbane

Ons Jabeur made his return to competition on Monday, advancing past Saisai Zheng (7-6, 6-4) in the 1st round of the WTA 500 in Brisbane.

The Tunisian had decided to put an end to her 2024 season in September, due to shoulder discomfort which prevented her from playing at her best.

She needed almost two hours of play to get past Zheng, who was using her protected ranking.

The Chinese player served to win the first set (6-5) before being broken and losing the tie-break. In the second set, Jabeur came back from a break down to win 6-4.

After this first success, Jabeur, now ranked 42nd in the world, will face No.14 seed Ekaterina Alexandrova in the 2nd round.
