Osaka's movement is getting sharp. One deep run and she will be back. She is gonna be threat to every top player this year. Realistic target should be top 20. But who knows she captures a slam. Never write multi slam off
Don't know about that - I'm happy she gets some more match play under her belt and gets into the top 100 this year. With all the current competition, getting all those points to make it to the top 20... mmmh very unlikely
@@AdyHh-up9ezbut it’s the movement that bothers her. She hates grass. I believe the last time she played at Wimbledon she went out first round. Also doesn’t help she probably won’t practice on it. I am curious to see how she does on clay.
So so happy to see Naomi smile again, so peaceful looking, and she looks happy to. YOU GO GIRL. Cant wait to see holding up a trophy again, as you improve ur game.
When Naomi finds her groove, players have a hard time catching up to her. So glad she’s playing well!!! Can’t wait to see how she does against later opponents.
Coco struggled to win her last game and the British commentary went in on her called her a magician and labored 🤣 Sablanka struggled to win her last game and she's a warrior geesh have some pride it's getting sad to see.
Yeah she lacks that diversity of defensive slices that can buy her time to get back in position paired with that power and improved movement to be just deadly to anyone
Osaka's game looking good. She has good draw , she can have a deep run if she continues playing well, by improving some aspects of her game as the tournament goes.Curious to see how well she'll do against Mertens, next.
Still giving up on a few shots, but her willingness to chase down balls at the baseline is coming back, and I'm here for it. Exciting stuff from Naomi!
3:47 what a point! Samsonova was in the zone there, fortunately for Osaka she sealed the deal real quick right after otherwise she wouldve been in real trouble
Iga is great player but when big hitter hits correctly to her forehand and rushes her. She can be exposed. U have to patient and accurate but she isn't unbeatable and has weak seeve
@@deusexmachina9776 Naomi is still four times hardcourt slam winner. Naomi fans know when she doesnt play well. She gets bageled too. But when she peaks. No-one touches her
Awesome win for Osaka! 👍 She's up against Mertens next, and that's going to be a challenge. Mertens doesn't give away many free points, so it should be a tough match.
The swift upturn of Naomi Osaka continues in each passing step. It points out that she will be more stable in the second portion of the season. This rapid development of Osaka is a huge intimidation to the top-seeded competitors. From time to time, she hesitates to complete some rallies and combats at the particular points, her experience and competency are the hallmark of Japanese tennis competitor. She keeps making the colossal improvements within this continuum.
Good to see her back to somewhere near 65% , moving well, but Yeah she lacks that diversity of defensive slices that can buy her time to get back in position paired with that power and improved movement to be just deadly to anyone
I don’t think she played well on this match but neither did her opponent. It’s good to see her running balls down though and not giving up on points. On another note, this court looks so slow. 😅
Osaka and other attack players can't do much damage on this clay sorry hardcourt which is made for topspin merchants like iga. Like seriously where is parity? Court speed should be medium to help every playstyle
All it takes normally is for Osaka to move well, which she apparently did here. Most of her overhitting unforced errors come from poor stance/movement and since her game is not a compromising type she would invariably rush the shot to try to overcome that deficit to cause an error. I also like Samsonova's kick serve on the ad court. One of the best in womens' tour.
Never heard her grunt this much (i like it though). I hope it's not a contributing factor in her unforced errors. Anyhow, I'm happy.. I can go sleep now
Can anyone explain how the ranking works in WS? For example if Naomi goes deep into the quarters or semis of a major 1000, what will be her new ranking? Or simply what does she needs to do to break into the top 32 again??
It's pretty simple. Forecast for Naomi: (Round) - (Points) - (Around Rank) QF - 473 - 153 SF - 648 - 118 F - 908 - 79 W - 1258 - 49 To get into Top 32 she need (W+SF) or (F+F) at Sunshine Double.
What is WS? Each tournament, Slams, 1000's, 500's etc. give you points for the round you reach. People are ranked by total points in the past 52 weeks. For example, winning this tournament gives you 1000 ranking points.
Its amazing how someone can watch matches like this and claim modern day women's tennis is boring. Just look at the power and athleticism. There are so many matches like this in every tournament on the women's side. There's intense competition. The moment your level drops a bit, it's over for you. Tennis is forever going to be enjoyable irrespective of who retires.
Ludmilla is such a frustrating player. Congrats to Naomi. But Samsonova seems to be 99pc physically fit and only 1pc mentally fit. Please get it together , girl.
Let's go Naomi. So happy that her determination to win is back again. Her smile at the end showed that.
its good to hear osaka starts grunting every points mean that she on God mode
Best win for Osaka so far in 2024. Movement is getting better
You can’t deny the fact that Osaka attracts audiences
True.
no one can, she’s one of the most loved players on tour.
of course
She’s a champion🔥and she’s also enjoyable to watch.
Certainly in the US. Not sure about Europe. Not super famous because she never came, and when she did, she mostly flopped...
Naomi actually putting lots of topspin despite being known as flat hitter. This surface needs lot of topspin and it is working.
Osaka's movement is getting sharp. One deep run and she will be back. She is gonna be threat to every top player this year. Realistic target should be top 20. But who knows she captures a slam. Never write multi slam off
Don't know about that - I'm happy she gets some more match play under her belt and gets into the top 100 this year. With all the current competition, getting all those points to make it to the top 20... mmmh very unlikely
@@ItsJayYorkthere’s a chance if she can play on clay and grass well
@@ItsJayYork she has game for grass with that big serve and she has added more topspin . Which is must on clay. This year u will see improvement.
@@ItsJayYork how u likely? One wta 100 and some deep runs . She can end year in top 20. It isn't far fetched
@@AdyHh-up9ezbut it’s the movement that bothers her. She hates grass. I believe the last time she played at Wimbledon she went out first round. Also doesn’t help she probably won’t practice on it. I am curious to see how she does on clay.
Go Naomi!We're feeling good about her game😸
So so happy to see Naomi smile again, so peaceful looking, and she looks happy to. YOU GO GIRL. Cant wait to see holding up a trophy again, as you improve ur game.
Great to see her back and smiling!
When Naomi finds her groove, players have a hard time catching up to her. So glad she’s playing well!!! Can’t wait to see how she does against later opponents.
Calm down she’s playing against Samsonova not Sabalenka 😂
I agree!!!
Coco struggled to win her last game and the British commentary went in on her called her a magician and labored 🤣 Sablanka struggled to win her last game and she's a warrior geesh have some pride it's getting sad to see.
@@spillomina Samsonova is a great player tho and when she's on she can beat anyone, she even leads the h2h against sabalenka lol
@@spillomina Lol samsonova leads the h2h with aryna
Veo que Osaka tiene cada vez mas destellos del tenis que le conocimos, si logra recuperar su nivel será muy positivo para la WTA
Come on Osaka keep stronger 💪💪❤❤❤
Osaka is my fav player now along with Halep after Serena retried
Congratulations Osaka! ❣️
I feel Osaka's serve can improve to win her more ace points. Her return is good though.
👑QUEEN NAOMI OSAKA👑WE LOVE YOU BABY!💪🏾
Let’s goooooooo! I think Naomi’s defensive balls could be deeper/heavier, but this is amazing!
agreed.
Yeah she lacks that diversity of defensive slices that can buy her time to get back in position paired with that power and improved movement to be just deadly to anyone
@@becantysergeeddykouassi3452 she is using more topspin.that is one improvement
Osaka's game looking good. She has good draw , she can have a deep run if she continues playing well, by improving some aspects of her game as the tournament goes.Curious to see how well she'll do against Mertens, next.
well said.
I will be curious to see how she fares against Guaff in the 4th round .. looking forward to that one
Well done Osaka🎉🎉🎉 your smile says it all 😊
Osaka is back 👏
Naomi is such a star with great crowd support. Keep hating her but she is marketable and has biggest market in usa and asia. 😊
Can't help but loving Naomi even more... Mama's on fire 🔥 😍
Samsonova was not going away easily. Strong looking tennis from Osaka. She is getting there.
Well done Naomi❣🎾
Finally Osaka we missed you🎉
Let’s go Naomi! ✨✨
Great to Osaka back in form. Hope to see her in the Round of 16 against Gauff.
Osaka!!!🤩
Seeing the fire in Naomi again! So overdue and so needed for tennis
Congrats Naomi! 🎉
Let's get back to the top.
Osaka is better and better every match:P
Let's go, Naomi!!!
Still giving up on a few shots, but her willingness to chase down balls at the baseline is coming back, and I'm here for it. Exciting stuff from Naomi!
Stuff dreams are made of.Osaka's forehand is like a whip.
3:47 what a point! Samsonova was in the zone there, fortunately for Osaka she sealed the deal real quick right after otherwise she wouldve been in real trouble
I really hope to see Iga/Osaka play each other
Queen of WTA in serious action let's gooooo Naomi the audience is yours 💪💪💪💪💪
if Naomi goes redline again no one can keep up with her, not even Iga
Iga is great player but when big hitter hits correctly to her forehand and rushes her. She can be exposed. U have to patient and accurate but she isn't unbeatable and has weak seeve
Osaka isnt serena, a bunch of players beat her at her prime
@@deusexmachina9776sorry to break it to you, but if someone beats Naomi especially on hardcourt she was not on her prime in that match🤷♂️
@@deusexmachina9776 Naomi is still four times hardcourt slam winner. Naomi fans know when she doesnt play well. She gets bageled too. But when she peaks. No-one touches her
@@deusexmachina9776 she owned serena and no don't cry about serena age. She decided to keep playing and got owned by naomi
Welcome back champ!
.......I also think with more match play you will get more grand slams.
Very Good
I want her to take down the #1 Sloth. Go Osaka!
Good to see the female tennis player is back
Congratulations ♥️
Let's go Naomi!!!!!
Awesome win for Osaka! 👍

Let’s go Naomi!!!
3:40 WTH .. never seen forehand like that in women's tennis .. brilliant.
Why did yall post more of Samsonite highlights than okasa highlights when naomi was the winner
to be unbiased
Let’s go Naomi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Naomi shuts up her haters mouth little by little by her wins. 🤣
おめてど ごさいます. Naomi chan 🎉
We love you queen. Youre getting there, we know😮
Is that Naomi grunting ❤
Yesss!!!
if she is grunting it’s over
Good to see her back to somewhere near 65% , moving well, but Yeah she lacks that diversity of defensive slices that can buy her time to get back in position paired with that power and improved movement to be just deadly to anyone
Without rybakina, Osaka is the only one left i care about
Missed Naomi, Im glad to see her back to form🎉❤.
i was at this match in and this one guy kept screaming all the way from the top “LETS GO SAMSONOVA” so loudly the chair umpire got so angry. 😂
Yasss Naomi Osaka 🤟
I'm so glad "Naomi"won this match *
Parabéns Osaka, sucesso 🎾🏸🎾🏸🤝💪👏👏
Luda did a great effort, the first set could be different i she would won one of the key points. It’s tennis! Congrats Naomi!
I don’t think she played well on this match but neither did her opponent. It’s good to see her running balls down though and not giving up on points. On another note, this court looks so slow. 😅
It is😊
Indian Wells is known to be one of the slowest hard court.
Osaka and other attack players can't do much damage on this clay sorry hardcourt which is made for topspin merchants like iga. Like seriously where is parity? Court speed should be medium to help every playstyle
Lets gooooooooo Naomi!!!!!
GO Naomi go!
Naomi, happy you`re again playing good tennis, congrats!!
What happened to her serves?
Court is slow af and support topspin merchants like iga. Not big servers and hitters like naomi
All it takes normally is for Osaka to move well, which she apparently did here. Most of her overhitting unforced errors come from poor stance/movement and since her game is not a compromising type she would invariably rush the shot to try to overcome that deficit to cause an error.

Osaka ate samosa for lunch 😂😂
I'm a fan of Sushi and other Japanese cuisine but I've never come across Samosa... Samosa sounds more like Mexican cuisine 🤔🤔
She ate samosanova for her afternoon meal😉🍣🍵.
@@ricklee5845 Samosa is an Indian snack🐘. It is a small fried pastry with spicy filling in it🤤.
samosa 😭 she’s unleashing her inner desi girl
God bless you Naomi, in Jesus’ name. I hope and pray you win the trophy.
I will always love naomi
Never heard her grunt this much (i like it though). I hope it's not a contributing factor in her unforced errors.
Anyhow, I'm happy.. I can go sleep now
I’m excited for Naomi🎉

Liudmila Samsonite did a good match 👍🏻
Ludmilla is such a frustrating player. Congrats to Naomi. But Samsonova seems to be 99pc physically fit and only 1pc mentally fit. Please get it together , girl.
Ranking 287 wins over 15 lol
Must be world's most dangerous 287 lol
She finally has something to work for a kid
Sakhalin is Japan.
Людмила опять проиграла ,ей это не в первой😊
Naomi doesn't look match tough yet, but she will get there. I wonder if she does a lot of sprints in training. She was out of position on some shots.
Another "no flag" is out, great!
Interesting that Osaka is half Haitian as the lily white media never acknowledge that at all. I digress
Why Osaka skin is so dark ?
Nothing offensive just asking
Because her dad is Haitian
.
