Tennis: Jabeur Bests Raducanu To Reach Abu Dhabi Quarterfinals

By IANS News February 08, 2024 • 11:02 AM View: 1114

Abu Dhabi Open: Ons Jabeur of Tunisia blasted her way into the last eight of the Abu Dhabi Open with a straight-sets victory over Brit Emma Raducanu.

Having edged an entertaining, and relatively close opening set, Jabeur stepped it up in the second and simply had too much for Raducanu, the Tunisian going through courtesy of a 6-4, 6-1 victory.

It took Jabeur just one hour and 18 minutes to book her place in the quarter-finals on Wednesday night, where she will meet Brazil’s Beatriz Haddad Maia, who beat Magda Linette in the longest WTA main draw match of 2024.
