Osaka beaten, Gauff goes through
Four-Time Grand Slam champion, Nao¬mi Osaka, paid the price for too many errors as she lost in straight sets to 19th seed, Emma Navarro.
The 26-year-old, playing at Wimbledon for the first time in five years, was beaten 6-4 6-1 in the second round.
The defeat means Osaka has still not progressed be¬yond the third round at Wim¬bledon after four attempts.
Competing as a wildcard after the birth of her first child last year, Osaka missed the 2022 tournament through injury and in 2021 took breaks from the sport to deal with mental health issues.
Earlier, Coco Gauff stormed past Romanian qualifier, Anca Todoni, to move into the third round of Wimbledon.
The second seed enter¬tained the crowd under the roof on Court One with big hitting to earn a 6-2 6-1 victory in 66 minutes.
Gauff will play British qualifier, Sonay Kartal, who claimed the biggest win of her career with victory over France’s Clara Burel later on Wednesday.-BBC
