French Open: Ons Jabeur beaten in first round by Magda Linette
The two traded breaks in the opening set and Linette faltered when serving at 5-3 down to hand Jabeur the opener.
However, Jabeur missed four break-point chances in the second set and looked the less confident of the two as Linette forced a decider. Serving to stay in the match, the Tunisian squandered a 40-0 lead and double-faulted to hand Linette match point.
