Ons Jabeur came very close to winning the Volvo Car Open in Charleston last week but in today's final, she is going for revenge.
It was a disappointing end to a great run last week for Ons Jabeur but she will be looking to right that wrong today. After another great week of tennis, she is in the final of the Charleston two event where she will play Astra Sharma. Jabeur never won a title before and she desperately wants to win which she confirmed prior to the match:
“I’m definitely going for my revenge. I’m going to really play like I never played before. I really want this win.”
She certainly played like that this week trashing delivering bagel sets to three different opponents including yesterday against Kovinic.
Continuing on the final she said:
“I mean, I guess saying it out loud helps me like get the confidence that I need. I lost a lot of matches before in those kinds of situations where stress more than it’s supposed to be. So I tried to learn from my last match [against Kovinic]. I had a lot of opportunities before and I don’t want to waste any opportunities anymore.”
This final will be the first meeting between the two players. Her opponent Sharma played strong tennis all week and is having a very solid year but as a player ranked lower than Jabeur she will be the underdog. The final will be played at 20:00 CET.

- I predicted whenthe list was finalised that Linda Noskova would win the WTA Finals and her matches against Gauff and Kostyuk prove that. She is the best (underrated) player in the world!Rapunzel11-11-2026
- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
