In his box, nothing has changed between the previous rounds and the final. The same people, the same entourage, who are there to cheer him on. Unfortunately, for his first Grand Slam final this Saturday at Wimbledon, Ons Jabeur did not see the faces of his parents and his sister enter his box for this very special occasion. The reason: his relatives did not obtain a visa to go to England.
โWe wish Ons good luck for the Wimbledon final. We encourage you, like all Tunisians, the British embassy in Tunis tweeted. We are sorry to hear that your parents and sister cannot be there to support you, and we will investigate what happened. ยป
This did not stop Ons Jabeur from taking the first set of the final against Kazakh Rybakina. And we know some of them who must vibrate from Tunisia.
