In the next round, Jabeur will face the Czech Marie Bouzkova, Caroline Garcia's faller at the start of the day.
They will each aim for the first Grand Slam semi-final of their careers.
Jabeur, asked if the match had been enjoyable or stressful, replied "both" with a smile.
Broken only twice in the previous rounds, she gave up her commitment three times during this match studded with 57 unforced errors for the two players.
"She's a very good opponent, it's never easy to play her and I had to dig deep during the tie-break because I couldn't imagine playing three sets against her," admitted Jabeur.
Still undefeated on grass this season, she was able to come out of it by tightening the game and thanks to a power superior to her opponent.
"Preparing on grass is nice for me, I enjoy it a lot. I hope to continue my streak, I love playing on grass and I hope it will continue, maybe until the final “, she concluded.
