The reigning champion Ons Jaber withdrew from the WTA-1000 tournament in Madrid
The two-time finalist of the Grand Slam tournaments, the fourth racket of the world, the representative of Tunisia Ons Jaber withdrew from the clay tournament of the WTA-1000 category in Madrid (Spain), which will be held from April 25 to May 6.
Note that in Madrid, Zaber had to defend last year’s title. 1000 rating points will be deducted from Ons after the completion of the competition.
“Medical tests showed that I have a small ligament tear in my shins, and I will need a little more time to recover. So, unfortunately, I will not be able to perform at the tournament in Madrid this year and defend my title,” Zhaber explained her decision on social networks.
Let us remind you that last week at the tournament in Stuttgart, Zhaber reached the semifinals, from which she withdrew, winning almost 20 minutes. Leaving the court, Ons could not hold back tears.
