Osaka is slowly getting her form back

Before the Miami Open, Osaka had a torrid 2022 with many problems both on and off the court. Actually, she has been facing mental health issues since the French Open last year. At Indian Wells Masters, she left the court in tears after losing in the second round, as someone from the crowd heckled her during the match.

However, at the Miami Open, she feels much happier. After winning her first-round pretty easily, she faced the 3-time Grand Slam champion Angelique Kerber in the second round. she absolutely blew away the German player in straight sets; the result being 6-2,6-3 in favor of the four-time Major champion.

Fans were greatly anticipating a tight contest between Osaka and the 2021 Australian Open semifinalist, Muchova. However, the latter had to withdraw from the contest due to an abdominal injury. Now, the Japanese star will face Alison Riske in her Round-of-16 match.
