Ons Jabeur was born on August 28, 1994, in Ksar Hellal, Tunisia. She was introduced to tennis at the age of three by her mother. Jabeur showed early promise in her junior career, reaching two junior major girls’ singles finals at the French Open in 2010 and 2011, winning the latter. This historic victory made her the first African or Arab to win a junior major since 1964. After nearly a decade primarily competing on the ITF level, Jabeur consistently began contesting on the WTA Tour in 2017. Her professional career saw steady progression marked by several milestones.
In 2020, Jabeur became the first Arab woman to reach a major quarterfinal at the Australian Open, a feat she repeated at the 2021 Wimbledon Championships.

She continued to elevate her performance in 2022, securing her biggest title at the Madrid Open, a WTA 1000 event. This accomplishment propelled her to reach two successive major finals at Wimbledon and the US Open, and she achieved a career-high ranking of world No. 2 on June 27, 2022. Jabeur reached the Wimbledon final again in 2023, solidifying her position as a prominent figure in professional tennis. Her career achievements have significantly contributed to raising the profile of tennis across the African continent.
Jabeur’s career progression also includes significant tournament appearances and rankings. She has won five singles titles on the WTA Tour, including a WTA 1000 event. She has been a runner-up at three majors, becoming the first African and Arab woman to contest a major singles final.

In February 2025, she announced an indefinite hiatus from professional tennis, citing a need to prioritize her well-being.
