One year on, the 28-year-old returned under completely different circumstances. She has spent much of this season injured, with setbacks continually halting her attempts to re-establish top form. Still, the seventh seed continues to advance through the draw. Yesterday, Jabeur eased past Bernarda Pera 6-3, 6-1 to reach the quarter-finals here for the first time.
By making a long-awaited extended run where she first made her name by winning the 2010 junior title, Jabeur has now reached the quarter-finals of every grand slam tournament.
Despite her first-round defeat in Paris, Jabeur's play on clay last year paved the way for a breakthrough season as she became the first Arab and African player to reach the Wimbledon and US Open finals, rising to a career high of No 2. She had started this year with hopes of chasing down Iga Swiatek at No 1 but shortly after the Australian Open in January she had minor knee surgery and was out of action for two months.
