Ons Jabeur is yet to lose a set on grass in 2022 and she's just one match away from winning the 2022 Wimbledon.
During the 2022 season, Ons Jabeur became the hero of her country and the whole African continent. Now, the Tunisian is close to winning her maiden Grand Slam title and she showed that she cares about the upcoming generation following her semifinal victory at the 2022 Wimbledon.
“It feels amazing to be in the final. Now one more step to hopefully get the title. It's always about Tunisia somehow. I want to go bigger, inspire many more generations. Tunisia is connected to the Arab world, and is connected to the African continent. In the area, we want to see more players."
“It's not like Europe or any other countries. I want to see more players from my country, from the Middle East, from Africa. I think we didn't believe enough at certain point that we can do it. Now I'm just trying to show that, and hopefully people are getting inspired."
“It's nice of them to call me that minister of happiness name at home, unbelievable. It's funny because the actual minister calls me ‘Hello, Minister’. It's funny. It's tough times in Tunisia sometimes. When they see my matches, always say sports always unites people. I'm happy they follow me. They're pushing me to do better."
“I mean, if I make it and win the title on that special holiday, one of my favourites actually, it's going to be great. I always miss it. I always want to be with the family for that one. It always reminds me of being a child, and I used to have great moments with my family that day. It's like Christmas for you guys - similar for us. I’ll have a special celebration maybe after, and hopefully we'll enjoy it in positive vibes.”
