Osaka Ousts Ostapenko to Reach WTA Fourth Round at Canada
MONTREAL, CANADA, AUG 1 – Naomi Osaka won in straight sets with 71% first-serve points won and now aims for her first quarter-final at a WTA 1000 event since returning from maternity leave.
- Naomi Osaka secured a 6-2, 6-4 victory over 22nd seed Jelena Ostapenko on Friday to advance to the fourth round of the Canadian Open in Montreal.
- Osaka entered the tournament with momentum, having narrowly avoided defeat in the previous round by overcoming a significant challenge from Liudmila Samsonova, a stark contrast to her early departures at Wimbledon and the Paris Olympics last season.
- Osaka dominated the match by breaking Ostapenko's serve multiple times and making just 13 unforced errors compared to Ostapenko's 37, reflecting superior serving and accuracy.
- The one-hour, 11-minute match improved Osaka's lifetime record against Ostapenko to 3-0 and secured her a Round of 16 match against the winner of Jessica Pegula and Anastasija Sevastova, with Osaka holding a 1-1 record versus Pegula and 3-2 against Sevastova.
- Advancing to the fourth round marks Osaka's third time reaching this stage at a WTA 1000 event this year and moves her closer to her first post-maternity-leave quarterfinal at a major or WTA 1000 tournament.
