Ons Jabeur achieved another milestone when the No.8 seed from Tunisia outlasted No.12 seed Jessica Pegula 7-5, 0-6, 6-2 to win the Mutua Madrid Open for her first WTA 1000 title.
Jabeur survived both a set point in the first set and a second-set bagel before gritting her way to a 1-hour and 54-minute victory over the American Pegula. The No.10-ranked Jabeur, who became the first Arab woman to win a WTA Tour singles title last year at Birmingham, claimed her second career title. Speaking after the match, she said:
"[Pegula] was really good, putting a lot of pressure, playing kind of the game that I don't like. As soon as I was 30-0 down on my serve [in the last game], I was like, 'Of course you want to make it tougher. Of course, you want to suffer here. You don't want to just finish an easy game.' When I had the match point, I was like I had to win it from the beginning, otherwise, it's going to be very tough for me. But I'm very happy and trying to realize that I won today, really."
She continued;
"I'm so happy that I didn't wait long [for the title], because I was really disappointed after Charleston and Stuttgart. I was really close and I know I was playing really good there. But I have been doing a lot of hard work to see that it's paying off. I cannot describe how I feel right now."
