Two-time Wimbledon runner-up Ons Jabeur retired during her first match at the 2025 Wimbledon.
She suffered from difficulty breathing, the latest issue for her during an injury-filled season.
The Tunisian star stopped playing in her game against Viktoriya Tomova.
Jabeur was assisted by a trainer for a medical timeout in the first set.
At one point, she sat on her sideline seat broke down into a towel.
Ons Jabeur took a medical time out at 2-3 in the 1st set against Tomova at Wimbledon.
She looked very emotional… Tough scenes for the 2-time finalist.

Jabeur said, "I wasn't expecting not to feel good. I have been practicing pretty well the last few days. But I guess these things happen."
She added, "I'm pretty sad. Doesn't really help me with my confidence and what I keep pushing myself to do even though it was a very tough season for me. I hope I can feel better."
She lost to Elena Rybakina in the 2022 final and to Marketa Vondrousova in the 2023 final.
Jabeur also was a finalist at the 2022 US Open, losing to Iga Swiatek.
Jabeur's 2024 season was disappointing to her, as she suffered from several injuries, including a shoulder injury.
