Osaka had a very poor start to the year after losing in the third round of the Australian Open. She then skipped the Dubai and Doha before falling to Veronika Kudermetova in her second match at Indian Wells.

However, against Kerber, she wasted no time taking control of the match. She controlled the match with deep and confident groundstrokes. Osaka also served exceptionally well – with six aces, no double faults – winning 24 of 27 first-serve points. She hasn’t been broken in four sets. She dropped just seven games to win the game and march into the third round where she faces Karolina Muchova.

“She’s like the first high-seeded player I’ve beaten this year,” Osaka said in her on-court interview. “I feel like I came into the match wanting to dictate. My power on the shots was working really well.”
