"Minister of Happiness" Ons Jabeur... and the Incomplete Wimbledon Dream

The professional Tunisian tennis player Ons Jabeur cried a lot as she approached the victory in the Wimbledon Championship, but the final step did not come through, leaving the "Minister of Happiness" in tears, with thousands of her supporters sharing her dream of an immigrant who aspired to reach the top. Ons entered the match hoping to give the Arab world its first title in the Grand Slam tournaments and to become the first African player to win a major title, but she seemed far from her best level. Ons, fighting back her tears, said, "This is the most painful loss of my career." Under the main court's roof, closed due to the possibility of rain, Ons started the match perfectly with a 2-0 lead.
