“I’m just super happy to qualify and really looking forward to getting out to Australia,” said Jones, who has had over 10 surgeries in her life already. “I’ve never been before and I’m sure it’s going to be an amazing experience. I guess any draw for me would be a fascinating one. I look forward to any match I’ll play, whether it’ll be Serena Williams or another qualifier.”
Jones will now board a chartered flight to Melbourne where the players will serve a mandatory 14-day quarantine before warm-up events start on Jan. 31 before the Australian Open. Also joining the Briton on the flight will be Italy’s former world number five Sara Errani, who was a Roland Garros runner-up, a U.S. Open semi-finalist and an Australian Open quarter-finalist in 2012 before slipping down the rankings. The 33-year-old, currently ranked 131, booked her spot for the Feb. 8-21 Grand Slam at Melbourne Park with a 3-6 6-2 6-4 win over Croatian Ana Konjuh in the final round of qualifying.
