Lead[edit]

  • The first mention of No. should be converted to read as No.

Early life and background[edit]

  • "She grew up in the bigger nearby coastal town of Sousse." - larger
  • "a national sport high school" - not so sure that this is the correct way to spell this out
    • Which part? "Lycee sportif" basically translates to "sport high school". Sportsfan77777 (talk) 04:28, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Junior career[edit]

  • As with the first query in the lead section, the first mention of No. should be converted to read as No.

2008–12: WTA debut[edit]

  • Wikilink wild card to [[Wild card (sports)]
  • "She was also given a wild card into qualifying at the Dubai Tennis Championships the following week." - the qualifying competition

2013–16: Steady in the top 200 at the ITF level[edit]

  • "She entered qualifying at Wimbledon and the US Open," - how about entered the qualifying competitions instead?
  • "and did not win any titles in 2015." - and no titles in 2015.
    • Changed the sentence a bit to "Her only ITF title in 2014 came at a $25K event in Tunis, and she did not win any titles in 2015." Sportsfan77777 (talk) 04:32, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

2017–18: Top 100 debut, and then first WTA final[edit]

  • "With this title, she also earned a wildcard" - should that be spelt as wild card to be consistent?

2019–20: Grand Slam quarterfinal, top 50 debut[edit]

  • "She defeated three players including No. 36, Yulia Putintseva" - not mentioned in the WTA Tennis source attached to it
  • "In February 2020, Jabeur continued her progress and reached the second round of the Dubai Tennis Championships, where she lost to Simona Halep, despite having a match point in the third set tiebreak." - none of this is mentioned in the Romania Insider source so another reference that mentions all of this information is needed to replace it

Fed Cup[edit]

  • "that also included Mexico, China, and Germany." - the countries mentioned here should be wikilinked to their respective Fed Cup team articles
  • "Tunisia ultimately did not participate in Fed Cup in 2014 or 2015," - in the Fed Cup
    • For some reason, it is standard to leave out the "the" here. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 01:45, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "which was concurrent with Tunisia's one-year ban from Davis Cup" - from the Davis Cup

Olympics[edit]

  • Jabeur also represented Tunisia in singles at the London Olympic Games in 2012 in London" - the text in bold is redundant since London is already mentioned beforehand

Playing style[edit]

  • Wikilink drop shot and forehands for non-Tennis readers

Personal life[edit]

  • "a Russian-Tunisian former fencer who has also served as her fitness coach since 2017." - you can clarify that it was mid-2017 as stated in the GQ Middle East source
  • "Her favorite tennis player as a child was Andy Roddick." - The WTA Tennis source attached to this does state why Roddick is her favorite player if you believe that information would help
    • I left it out because it varies a little bit in other sources. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 04:48, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "She plays football recreationally, and is a fan of Real Madrid CF." - WTA Tennis states that she supports Real Madrid but not that she plays it recreationally
  • "At the tournament, she entered the main draw as a lucky loser and won her first two career Grand Slam main draw matches." - not so sure of the relevance of this information in the personal life section. It could be better to remove it since it is mentioned in the 2017-18 sub-section

References[edit]

  • Reference 15 should include the Associated Press as the agency who provided the story and it should include the subscription parameter
  • References 31, 35 are missing the dates they were published
  • "'I felt like I was home!' Peterson fights back to beat Jabeur and make Tianjin final" - the hyphen should be replaced by an en dash

Overall the main issues concern some of the wording of the prose and material not supported by some sources. On hold. MWright96 (talk) 20:48, 2 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
