Friday’s quarterfinal match of the Tunisian Jasmine Open Tennis Tournament, the first of its kind in the nation, which is held in the coastal governorate of Monastir, saw top-ranked Tunisian Anas Jaber unexpectedly lose to an unnamed American player, Claire Law, who is ranked 73rd in the world, 3-6, 6-4, 4-6. (east).
Jaber wanted the soul to triumph in this contest, especially because it was being watched by locals, but Liu had a different viewpoint.
Jaber had displayed strong play in the opening rounds of this session, losing just nine games in two matches to the Americans Anne Lee and Yevgena Rodina, but Liu, who advanced to the semi-finals of both the Rabat tournament and the Tokyo Games last May, was successful in putting an end to her career.
Liu won the opening set 6-3 after breaking Jaber early on and maintaining her advantage the entire time.
Ups and downs were evident in the second set as the two players traded breaks several times before the Tunisian tied the scores with a set for each of them.
Before Jaber dropped her serve at a crucial moment, notably in the ninth set, when Leo advanced 5-4 and went on to win her serve and the match, the tie stayed in the critical third set.
Jaber, who finished second at Wimbledon and the US Open this year, has won two championships since the start of the year after winning the Madrid Championship and the Berlin Games.
Anas Jaber had a sudden loss in her home.
