Ons Jabeur has had a remarkable rise in the world of tennis over the past few years, and she is poised to continue her success in 2023.

Born in Tunis, Tunisia, Jabeur began playing tennis at a young age and quickly showed a natural talent for the sport. She turned professional in 2011 and has been climbing the ranks ever since, with impressive performances at major WTA tournaments such as the Wimbledon and US Open.

In 2022, Jabeur reached the finals at both the grass-court major in the All England Club and the Grand Slam in the Flushing Meadows, solidifying her position as one of the top players in the world. She finished the year as the world No. 2 in the WTA Rankings, a career-high ranking for the 28-year-old.

She has a powerful serve and a strong all-around game, and she is one of the players that are not afraid to take risks and try out new tactics on the court. In 2023, Jabeur will be looking to build on her successes from the previous year and continue her rise to the top of the world rankings.

She will no doubt be a strong contender at the Grand Slam tournaments, and she will be looking to make it to the finals once again. In 2022, the Tunisian finished with a very good record 47-17 and she was strong especially on the clay and grass courts.

Next year, Jabeur will be certainly one of the main challengers for Iga Swiatek if not the only one. She will need to use her experience from the major finals that she played in 2022 and push one step further to lift her first Grand Slam trophy.

Wimbledon may be the place tailor-made for he as her game suits grass courts and her 11-1 record on grass in 2022 and 10-2 in 2021 just proves it. While the Tunisian will be certainly discussed as one of the top favourites in the All England Club, it remains to be seen if she can challenge the young Pole currently sitting on the world no. 1 spot as she seemed to be almost unbeatable in 2022.
