Tunisia’s tennis star Ons Jabeur and the former world number one Russia’s Maria Sharapova shared a friendly embrace in a video that appeared on social media.
Both current and former players are famous for their on-field and off-field activities. In a video that appeared on the social media platform X — previously known as Twitter — the two shared a friendly embrace during the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix (GP).

On the other hand, Sharapova is a former world number one who has managed to achieve five Grand Slam titles in her career. Her first title victory was in 2004 when she won Wimbledon after beating America’s legendary tennis star Serena Williams with a score of 6-1, 6-4.
Her last big triumph came in 2014 when she won the French Open after beating the former world number one Romania’s Simona Halep in the final with a score of 6-4, 6-7, 6-4.
