Zverev marches on in Miami; Osaka falls

Osaka: "kind of catches me offguard" & "I didn't know she could hit like that."

Demonstrates a lack of preparation / research against an opponent.

"The way she plays kind of catches me off guard, simply because of her height. I didn't know she could hit like that," she added.

Is her speech ever going to develop beyond a high school level?

It’s painful to listen to Osaka, in victory or defeat.

Naomi's lost the 'eye of the tiger', she's been at the game's top, makes a TON of $ with endorsements and off court business activity and investments, plus she loves being a Mommy and does not enjoy the pain and sacrifice of constant training and travel as a result.

Above makes Osaka rather normal in reality, she should just have more kids and keep laughing and smiling, as not everyone is cut out to be the GOAT.

She had a good run at a Masters 1000 event, losing in the round of 16 after a tough battle to a top 10 player who's been in great form recently. By all means, it is a good performance.

Her eloquence is another matter, but she is a pro tennis player (who basically quit school early to become a pro), not a PhD in quantum physics or a motivational speaker.
