‘I love tennis so much I gotta play three sets’published at 07:31 Greenwich Mean Time
Navarro 6-4 3-6 6-4 Jabeur
American eighth seed Emma Navarro joked she “can’t resist” going the distance in her matches after winning her third consecutive three-set encounter at Melbourne Park.
The 23-year-old beat former Wimbledon and US Open finalist Ons Jabeur 6-4 3-6 6-4 to reach the fourth round.
Since the start of 2024, Navarro has played 32 matches that have gone the full three sets, winning 23 of them.
“I love three sets. I love tennis so much I can’t resist, I gotta play three sets,” Navarro said.
Navarro is the daughter of billionaire businessman Ben Navarro, founder of the Sherman Financial Group, and credited her dad for her stamina, saying he would take her and her siblings on six-hour bike rides as youngsters.
“We made up a term: biking and crying,” Navarro said.
“I learned a lot of toughness growing up. A lot of thanks goes to him.”
Feels harsh, actually.
