Tunisian tennis star Ons Jabeur had the Australian Open crowd in hysterics after being left slightly embarrassed for a mistaken innuendo about her husband during her on-court interview.

The No 2 seed faced a difficult opening match to the Australian Open with Tamara Zidansek forcing a third and deciding set. But Jabeur turned it up a notch in the final set to secure her place in the second round. The match finished after 10pm late at night in Melbourne, giving Jabeur little time to rest up.

She was asked about what her recovery will look like immediately after the game and Jabeur explained what role her husband will play. Jabeur said: "Ice bath and I'm gonna make my husband work tonight to have a lot of massage and good recovery."

The crowd inside Rod Laver Arena immediately laughed at the kinky insinuation from Jabeur, who quickly added: "Massage guys, massage. For those who don't know, my husband is also my fitness coach and does everything for me so."

That clarification only drew more laughs and cheers from the Australian Open crowd while Jabeur couldn't help but laugh herself. It was a light-hearted interview from Jabeur, but the start of the match against Zidansek was anything but that.
