STORY CONTINUES BELOW THESE SALTWIRE VIDEOSNEW YORK - An ailing Ons Jabeur scraped by Czech Marie Bouzkova 5-7 7-6 6-3 to keep her latest U.S. Open campaign on track in the third round on Saturday despite an error-riddle performance.
She will next play China's Zheng Qinwen, who beat Italian Lucia Bronzetti 6-3 4-6 6-4, in the round of 16. Jabeur may be known as the"Minister of Happiness" but the perennial fan favorite had little to smile about in the opening set, as her mistakes quickly piled up and Bouzkova broke her on the fifth try in the fourth game.
Down a break in the second set, Bouzkova took an off-court medical timeout after the seventh game with an apparent leg injury but kept up the fight even as she occasionally limped around the court, breaking back in the 10th.
