US Open: Jabeur Outlasts Noskova In Second-round Battle, Svitolina Advances After Comeback Win
Patricia Maria Tig: Last year's finalist Ons Jabeur of Tunisia pulled off another close call at this year’s US Open, staging a third-set comeback to hold off rising Czech teenager Linda Noskova 7-6(7), 4-6, 6-3 in a gripping second-round encounter.
The Tunisian had survived two tight sets against Camila Osorio in the first round and overcame physical distress in her opening-round win on Tuesday, and she was pushed even further by 18-year-old Noskova on Thursday night.
Jabeur was down a break at 2-3 in the third set, but she won the next four games in succession, prevailing after 2 hours and 8 minutes of play on the Grandstand court.
