Home hope Ons Jabeur beaten in Monastir quarter-finals
Tunisia when she lost 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 to American Claire Liu in Monastir on Friday. Top seed Jabeur went into the quarter-finals in irrepressible form having dropped just nine games in her previous two matches against the American Ann Li then the Russian Evgeniya Rodina. But she was handed a surprise defeat by Liu, ranked 71 places below her, who came into the tournament in good form. The 22-year-old from California reached the quarter-finals in Tokyo in mid-September and was a finalist in Rabat in May.
