Naomi Osaka is on a roll. Dropping down a category, facing lesser opponents, and knowing how to navigate through challenges have worked wonders for her tennis and her confidence. The title she claimed at the WTA 125 in St. Malo has revitalized the Japanese player, who confidently rode the wave into her debut at WTA Rome 2025... sweeping aside her first opponent. The Japanese athlete delivered 40 winners to defeat Sara Errani (6-2, 6-3), in a dominant victory setting up an exciting second-round clash... against Paula Badosa. A clash of titans and a tough challenge awaits Paula in her return to the circuit.
