The No6 seed was obliterated in one of the most one-sided matches of this year's Australian Open, beaten 6-0, 6-2 by the 16-year-old Russian, who looks set to be the next superstar of the sport.
Andreeva emerged on the tour last season, revealing an infatuation with the smile of Andy Murray and the tennis of Jabeur.
Her stated desire after a first Grand Slam singles win at last year's French Open was simply to have a practice session against the Tunisian. Today, she got much more.
Her 29-year-old opponent, a beaten finalist at the last two Wimbledon Championships, never got into her rhythm and took seven games before she finally got a score on the board.
That merely acted as a temporary reprieve, as her teenage opponent delighted the crowd on Rod Laver Arena.
To highlight her meteoric rise, a year ago Andreeva was in Melbourne playing and losing in the final of the junior girls' singles.
