Being fit makes you smarter in court, Other agass Observed in a famous way.
Naomi Osaka It shows to improve fitness as one of the three main reasons for its revival in Montreal.
Formerly -Bota Nr. 1 Osaka press formerly the finalist of the US Open Open Anastasia Sevastova 6-1, 6-0 in a 49-minute blow that was the shortest match of her career.
Win is the fourth direct victory of Osaka, which equals the winner of the season that came to Auckland in January. She sent Osaka to her first Canadian open quarterfinal and threw her on the stage at no. 34 in the LIVE ranking – while it moved within the striking distance of a US Open wild cardboard.
Osaka attributes her best Montreal in her career in three main reasons: she is appropriate in court, happier outside the court and believes her trial with coach Tomasz Wiktorowski is working well so far because of Polish, nonsense coaches.
“Honestly, I think about me what is working well is that I’m very sure in my gym,” Osaka said. “I am indeed
Comfortable just by restoring the balls now, and I really like Tomasz. I don’t know if I say his name is ‘Thomas’ or ‘Tomasz’. I’m very sorry.
“But I enjoy his workout style. He is very straightforward and up to that point. For someone like me, who my thoughts distribute frequently, is very useful.”
Sometimes this season, Osaka was beaten by deep balls in the corner and sometimes tried to play big strokes below the line, more than playing a deep ball to give yourself time to recover in the center of the court.
In fact, recently as many as 4-6, 7-6 (6), 6-3 occupation of the return of Loudmila Samsonova in the second round, Osaka was repeatedly beaten in Crosscourt exchanges and sometimes taking a big step rather than short, accurate preparation steps to give her ideal body separation.
Montreal’s 2023 finalist Samsonova held a double match point at 6-4, 5-4, 40-15 when Osaka was excavated and denied two points of match, stirring her incentive return.
In retrospect, it is possible that the return victory can change the course of the Osaka season if it holds this winning belt. Saving those points of the match, Osaka began to unite the manufacturing points rather than being directed to try to finish the premature points with a big strike.
Similarly, Osaka said she is now focusing on achieving the “mini goals” on the tour as she tries to collect more victories together and follow her final goal of a 10th return and eventually compete again for Slam titles.
“It”s weird. I talked to my father, and he said, how just to be healthy and happy is a form of success,” Osaka said. “I agree with this, but I want more.
“I mean, definitely, of course I would like to win clashes, of course I would like to be in Top 10 but I
Think I have to make a rhythm and go to the mini goals, and they will eventually turn into great goals. Yes, I think being in the quarter -finals here is a step to hoping to go to the semifinals and the finals, so I will try to treat it more. “
Osaka scored her 20th victory of the season in Montreal which matches her total production of the 2024 victory. Now, she will try to hold her list in front of the 10th seed Elina Svitolina for a semi -final place. The 27-year-old Osaka has won four of the seven meetings against Svitolina, who will test the patience of Japanese energy players with her accuracy.
