her opponent was ranked number 400 something , she should have beat her 2 and 0. Movement looks decent, serve is clicking very nicely but those ground strokes and anything defensive is just not looking good.
Looks like Patrick is trying to change Osaka's forehand.
Her serve is good, her backhand too. however, her forehand was better by the end of the season. The change that Patrick made on her forehand seems to destabilize her and is not natural. Also, its movement from one side to the other is not optimal yet.
Mental health illness is real. Not sure if Naomi will ever make it back to the top and win GS again, after taking time out to have a baby, when she was at the top of her game. Just don’t see it at all.
Is it lack of focus? Naomi hits some wild forehand shots that miss by miles even when not pressured. 4:50 is an example. Opponent no where close and the ball doesn't even land 5 feet beyond the baseline. Granted it was a defensive slice by her opponent back to Naomi but that was still wild. You don't typically see an unforced error like that from the top pros on a slightly neutral rally ball.
If this Asian Haitian was; a HAITIAN Asian, SHE would be the most DOMINANT tennis player ever. But she is lacking the TUFF MENTALITY needed in SOCIETY to carry the burden of STARDOM, because of her current CULTURE. The AFRICANISM strength was DUBBED DOWN. She struggles with dealing with the negativities that "THEY" so unjustly throws on her. iT IS A SHAME!!! How THEY could cast shadows on this poor solemn person. I WISH SHE WAS JAMAICAN! "THEY" DO NOT EVEN ATTEMPT THIS CRAP WITH my Jamaican people. Because "THEY" learn a long time ago, that the AFRICANS in JAMAICA are NOT TO BE TESTED. Naomi, I hope will visit JAM ROCK and go see how BLACKS are suppose to be in the world. ANYWHERE IN THIS WORLD. We are of peace and love, and demand RESPECT, or else you have to DEFEND any arrogance. That how it is, and should be. THAT IS WHY JAMAICA IS FAMOUS. It is OUR CULTURE OF RESPECT! It will be sad to see her leave the game, because of "THEM", but she will soon. She just does not have the mantle to coop.

Happy Naomi won this match, but Grabher certainly gave her a fight. Her serve was the strongest part of her game…those aces!
Sacré joueuse Osaka 🎾💙👌 j adore

lots of work to do.
Naomi is quicker now..
but still not a defensive player.
With her firepower I would think she would hit more returns that put the server on defense.
niomi moving well i love that
Naomi still making the same weird errors tho. Gotta clean that up. This match had no biz being this close.
Osaka still has her weapons but needs to concentrate on the easier points and not go daydreaming. She is a force once again. Looking promising 👌

Nice match. Osaka's court movements still needs work
you farm is so diverse ❤❤

Results are showing naomi dont quit just yet
Godzilla Magilla vs Julia Grabher !!!
Naomi is still far bellow her in form level, it is good she won and goes further, this is exactly what she needs to improve
Naomi is averaging 60 plus first serve compared to last year's average of 50. Improving
Naomi forehand change like patrick did to serena. Added more topspin

I love Naomi’s smile.
Small cages for such big rabbits….: – /
Why you lock animals in a cage?
Madam, Ace is when u cannot hit the ball at all i.e. ball does not touch your racquet, a complete miss or you're unable to get to the service
Ugly highlights…..easy errors…
大坂なおみガンバレ、優勝目指せ・
does the commentator know what an ace is???
2024 Osaka I think this would have gone 3 sets, opponent played well. Osaka movement is improved.
Good stuff from Osaka. Grabher was playing at a high level too; much better player than her ranking suggests.
Do it Naomi. Work your Magic! 💫💫💛🌟
Osaka melhorou sua forma física. Tá fininha e se movimentando bem… bom jogo.
This woman commentator does not know what an ace is!
This match was a lot harder for Naomi than the first one.I'm proud that she managed another straight sets win
I love watching Osaka, she's a great player and a great human being!
