Jabeur Falls Again to Vondroušová on Grass
Jabeur faced Vondroušová in the quarterfinals of the Berlin tournament. On grass, the two players clashed for the third time, with each having one win to their name.
Defeated in the 2023 Wimbledon final, Jabeur failed to get her revenge against the Czech player. After 1 hour and 13 minutes of play, she was unable to trouble her opponent and lost in straight sets (6-4, 6-1). Despite her strong performance in the previous round against world No. 5 Paolini, the Tunisian exited the German capital before the semifinals.
Since her victory in London in 2023, Vondroušová has struggled on grass, being eliminated in the second round of Berlin last year and then in her opening match at Wimbledon. She is now regaining her form on this surface and has secured a spot in the WTA 500 semifinals.
Ranked 164th in the world, the 25-year-old player now awaits the result of the match between Sabalenka and Rybakina to learn her next opponent.
