Naomi Osaka continues to convey very positive feelings at Wimbledon 2026. The Japanese player reached the third round after a commanding victory over Anastasiya Gasanova (6-3 and 6-2) and, after the match, made it clear that her improvement on grass is no longer just a matter of confidence but a better understanding of the surface and how to make the most of her tennis strengths.

"Now I feel that I can leverage my strengths on this surface," asserted Osaka, who struggled for years to find her best level on grass.

The four-time Grand Slam champion explained that Wimbledon presents very different characteristics even compared to other preparation tournaments. "It took me quite some time to understand the differences between the various clay courts, and now I'm experiencing something similar with grass. Right from the first practice, after coming from Germany, I noticed that this grass is completely different. I'm still adapting a bit," she said.

However, that adaptation is yielding results. "When I play against my opponents on grass, I feel that my tennis gives me a slight advantage," she affirmed.

Osaka also highlighted the work done with her coach to become a more complete player. "We are training a lot on approaching the net and volleys. Additionally, I now have much more confidence in my footwork and stamina," she explained. This evolution allows her to face points with more composure. "Today, I felt that I didn't need to hit every ball with maximum power because I trusted my mobility. Even if I was made to run, I knew I could reset the point and rebuild it," she pointed out.

With two convincing victories and a growing confidence on a surface that historically wasn't her favorite, Osaka is starting to establish herself as one of the most dangerous players in the draw. If she continues evolving at the same pace as she describes, her journey at Wimbledon could go much further than the first week.
