Learning from mistakes - that's what Berlin winner Ons Jabeur is trying to do these days. Because the Tunisian traveled to Paris with the tournament victory in Madrid and the final in Rome in her luggage. And then failed in the first lap due to Magda Linette, quite exhausted from the efforts of the weeks before.
That shouldn't happen to Jabeur at Wimbledon. Which is why she canceled her participation in the singles competition in Eastbourne on Monday. In doubles, however, the original plan remains: Ons Jabeur will start with Serena Williams. The two start against Sara Sorribes Tormo and Marie Bouzkova.
However, the WTA Tour 500 tournament in Eastbourne drops one of the favorites from the tableau. Jabeur was seeded second behind Paula Badosa.
