Naomi Osaka Triumphs in Thrilling Three-Set Battle at Roland Garros
Osaka, a four-time major winner who has yet to get past the third round in Paris, needed three sets to defeat Italy’s 48th-ranked Lucia Bronzetti on the showpiece Court Philippe Chatrier, 6-1, 4-6, 7-5.
The 26-year-old fired 31 winners, including six aces, and 45 unforced errors in a match where she gave up a 4-0 lead in the decider before finding herself 5-4 down.
However, she rallied strongly to register her first win at a Grand Slam since the 2022 Australian Open.
“It feels really nice to be back and I’m just really grateful to be here in front of everybody,” said Osaka.
“I think there were moments when I played really well.”
Osaka’s performance showcased her resilience and determination, particularly in the final set where she overcame a significant setback. This victory marks a crucial milestone in her comeback, signaling her readiness to compete at the highest level once again.
As Osaka moves forward in the tournament, her fans are hopeful for a deeper run at Roland Garros, where she aims to surpass her previous best and make a significant impact.
