<<It may well turn the ozone or O3 into H2S03 or H2SO4. Ph of the water would then rise proportional to the amount of sulphur in the water.>>

I agree that more S means more H2SO4.
BUT more H2SO4 will cause the pH to drop, not rise due to

inverse relationship between concentration of "hydrogen ions" (or hydrions) and pH
because pH = - log["hydrogen ions"].

That is, the more acidic the solution, the lower is its pH, and the more basic (alkaline) a solution, the higher is its pH.
