Naomi Osaka was sent crashing out of Wimbledon in the second round on Wednesday by America's Emma Navarro, who allowed the Japanese superstar just five games in a one-sided contest. Osaka, playing her first Wimbledon since 2019, went down 6-4, 6-1 on Centre Court in less than an hour. The two players were level-pegging at 3-3 in the first set before 17th-ranked Navarro broke to love and went on to take the first set.
Former world number one Naomi Osaka claimed her first win at Wimbledon since 2018 on Monday when she recovered from a break down in the final set to defeat Diane Parry of France. The Japanese star, a four-time Grand Slam title winner, came through 6-1, 1-6, 6-4. Osaka raced through the first set in just 22 minutes before her 53rd-ranked rival levelled the contest. In a rollercoaster decider, Parry was 3-1 ahead before Osaka battled back to 3-3. Osaka then saved two break points to edge 5-4 ahead and claimed victory when Parry served up her 10th double fault of the match. Victory was extra special for Osaka as it comes a day before her daughter Shai celebrates her first birthday.
Naomi Osaka’s first Wimbledon campaign in five years was emphatically halted by a swift second-round defeat to world number 17 Emma Navarro.
