Ons Jabeur has validated her ticket to the semi-finals of the Stuttgart tournament (Wta 500). The Tunisian, seeded No. 3, outclassed the Brazilian Beatriz Haddad Maia (6-3, 6-0). In the semifinals, the world No. 4 will challenge the leader of the women's circuit, Iga Swiatek, who defeated Karolina Pliskova in three sets (4-6, 6-1, 6-2).
Jabeur has two losses in a row against the Pole. The best African player has lost two finals against Swiatek, including the Masters 1000 in Rome and the US Open.
This Saturday, she will try to get the upper hand and play a second straight final, after the one in Charleston. "Maybe the good thing is that Iga is not at the same level as last year," said Jabeur after the quarterfinals. I'm going to try to play like I did on grass at Wimbledon (in 2021). I think the key is maybe to be unpredictable with Iga, not knowing what shots I'm going to make. I think it's really good to upset her. See you this Saturday at 14:00 GMT.
