Osaka, who has won four Grand Slam tournaments and former number one in the world, faced off against Russian-born Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, who won the first set of 6-3, but lost the second set of 4-6, and the third set was also 4-6.
Although he got off to a good start with his strong hit, he gradually lost his rhythm, Osaka said to the press, “I can’t say anything positive about myself. To be honest, I’m really frustrated right now. In fact, I thought I could play well. I don’t think it was a bad play, but I wanted to go further. There were definitely some areas to improve.”
Regarding his future goals, he expressed his enthusiasm, saying, “As long as I still have the opportunity to try it, I want to try it. I feel really depressed when I lose, but I think I have a competitive personality.”
Arena Sabalenka, currently the world number one in the world and from Belarus, defeated local Emma Radukanu 7-6, 6-4. Sixth seeded Madison Keys (USA) succumbed to Laura Siegemund (Germany) 3-6, 3-6.
In the second round of the women’s doubles, Hozumi Eri and Aldira Suchadi (Indonesia) lost to the 14th seeded Russian-born Ekaterina Alexandrova and Zhang Shui (China) groups 6-7, 7-5, 2-6.
