Ons Jabeur pursues her goal of becoming the first Arab tennis player to win a Grand Slam singles title. The talented Tunisian player is determined to make 2023 a memorable year. Jabeur is optimistic and self-assured despite coming up short in two important finals in 2022, and she is prepared to put in the effort and compete against tough opponents to reach her ultimate objective.

With her incredible talent and endearing personality in 2022, Jabeur enthralled fans all over the world. She narrowly missed winning the Grand Slam, though. She lost both the Wimbledon Championships match against Elena Rybakina and the US Open championship match against top-ranked Iga Swiatek. Jabeur, however, sees the value in these experiences because they have given her the skills and drive, she needs to succeed in the future.

Jabeur also spoke about sudden changes in the GOAT race among Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, and Roger Federer, as well as the remarkable rise of a new sensation, Carlos Alcaraz as a new star, and the noteworthy accomplishments in women’s tennis, including Ashleigh Barty‘s retirement and Iga Swiatek’s ascent. The Tunisian also mentioned contentious bans, unexpected Grand Slam champions, and the effects of rule changes.

“I think the change has happened on the women’s side for a long time already, and the men’s side is coming for sure. The example of the Williams sisters and Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, and Rafael Nadal is unbelievable. Now Iga is setting the example, and Ash Barty did it too. If she continued playing, she would have won 20 grand slams. But I like this new WTA. It’s so competitive that you don’t know who is going to win, and, honestly, maybe that’s better. Sometimes it’s boring to have the same final all the time.”
