Jabeur knocks out defending champion Keys at Cincy
Ons Jabeur claimed another statement victory in her breakout 2020 season, knocking out defending champion Madison Keys in straight sets to reach the third round at the Western & Southern Open.
Ranked at a career-high World No.39, Jabeur kicked off the year with a historic run at the Australian Open when she became the first Arab woman to reach the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam. She backed it up in the Middle East, reaching her first quarterfinal in Doha, and then seemed to pick up where she left off with another quarterfinal in Lexington.
