The tennis star lost her third-round match to unseeded American Amanda Anisimova
Tennis star Naomi Osaka was knocked out of the 2022 Australian Open on Friday after losing her third-round match to unseeded American Amanda Anisimova, a shocking early exit that will see the defending champion miss out on a marquee fourth-round clash with World No. 1 and home favorite Ash Barty.... [+]Anisimova pulled off the upset win in three sets with a scoreline of 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 and she will now face tournament favorite Ash Barty in the fourth round.
Osaka, who had not played in a competitive event since her third-round exit in the U.S. Open last year, acknowledged that she was not at her best and noted that the pace of the American shots surprised her. Osaka’s early exit from the Australian Open and her temporary break from the sport last year means that her ranking will now fall outside the top 50 from her current rank of 14.“I know there are days I’m going to have bad days and days I’m going to have great days. It’s always random, and I never know. But no matter what happens for me, I know I want to leave the court knowing that I’ve fought for every point,” Osaka said in a press conference after the game.$57.3 million.
