World No.3 Naomi Osaka recently won her match at the Australian Open 2021. Facing Garbine Muguruza in the fourth round, the Japanese star made a spectacular comeback after losing the first set. The final scoreline of the match read 4-6, 6-4, 7-5.

With this win, Naomi Osaka booked a spot for herself in the quarters of the Australian Open 2021 to butt heads with Hsieh Su-wei. Hsieh has played some brilliant tennis in the tournament so far and has just lost one set.

In the post-match interview, Osaka revealed what is so challenging about Hsieh’s game. She believes that the Chinese player definitely has quite a unique gameplay, which is interesting to watch.

“I mean, have you watched her play? It’s like, What?” said Osaka during an interview with a laugh.

She also highlighted that if she ever played a video game, she would always select Hsieh’s character. She feels that the Chinese player has a great sense of shot selection and makes some good choices on the court.

“She’s one of those players that, for me, if it was a video game, I would want to select her character just to play as her. Because my mind can’t fathom the choices she makes when she’s on the court,” added the 3-time Grand Slam champion.
