Naomi Osaka continue sa route vers un retour au top. Mercredi soir, la Japonaise a remporté une très belle victoire au premier tour du WTA 1000 de Toronto contre Ons Jabeur. La Tunisienne, touchée à l'épaule à Washington, avait déclaré forfait la semaine dernière aux USA. En difficulté, elle n'a pas existé contre une Osaka encore solide, 6-3, 6-1. La Japonaise n'a pas concédé la moindre balle de break et a pris rendez-vous avec Elise Mertens. Intéressante depuis la terre battue, Osaka retrouve petit à petit son tennis et a l'occasion de le montrer au Canada.

00:00I mean I missed it a lot that's kind of the reason why I came back I think you
00:10know for me where I'm at right now it it gives me like a really good test to see
00:18like where my weapons lay against there so I I was kind of excited to play
00:25against during the first round for me I've had so many matches on hardcourt
00:31under my belt and I learned a lot from my last match on hard which was against
00:36Garcia in Miami so it was a little bit a long time coming but I'm really glad to
00:43be back on hard and I think I don't know even the way that I return now is I took
00:50from clay so I hope that I can keep implementing things that I've learned
00:54over the months um yeah I mean I think for me representation is really
00:59important I've thought that way since I was younger I know I wouldn't be here
01:05without my role models Serena and Venus and just I guess blaze that path for
01:11other kids is really cool but I was talking with someone about this other
01:17day but since becoming a mom I think the word role model has always been heavy to
01:23me but now it's like I'm looking at kids looking at me and saying that I'm
01:28their favorite player and knowing that you know they have a parent behind them
01:34that's kind of trusting me with that is is really huge and if I think about shy
01:41like having a poster of a player then I'm gonna like do a lot of research on
01:48that person so I I really feel the trust and I think it definitely means a
01:53lot to me so I try to pay it back
