Doha Qatar TotalEnergies Open Quarterfinal Preview
If you had been asked to pick a player to watch at the start of 2025, Jabeur’s name likely wouldn’t have come anywhere close to your mind. She’s 30 years old, she’s out of the Top 30 in the rankings, and she can’t stop getting injured. The magic that took her to three major finals seemed to be a thing of the past.
But here she is in February, 11-4, in her second straight quarterfinal, with a win over Zheng Qinwen earlier this week. The Tunisian is also playing at one of her homes away from home, and she seems to like facing her next opponent.
Jabeur is 4-2 against Ostapenko, and she beat her in two tight sets just last week in Abu Dhabi. You never know when that magic will vanish from her racquet again, but she seems to be in a good place in Doha, both with her game, and with the fans who come out to see her.—Steve Tignor
