Roland-Garros: Jabeur needs three sets to reach third round

Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur, the No 8 seed, advanced to the third round of Roland-Garros after a three-set win over Colombia’s Camila Osorio in Paris on Wednesday.

After winning the first set 6-3, Jabeur was outplayed by Osorio, who captured the second set 6-1. The Tunisian regroup in the decider and won the third set, which featured five breaks of serve, 6-3 to win the match.

Jabeur, ranked No 9, will play the winner of the match between Canadian Leylah Fernandez, the No 31 seed, and Chinese Xiyu Wang next.

The Tunisian defeated American wildcard Sachia Vickery (6-3, 6-2) earlier in the week.

In the previous round, Osorio, ranked No 77, benefited from the retirement of Ukraine’s Anhelina Kalinina (3-6, 7-6 (2), 4-1).
