After missing last year's tournament due to the birth of her daughter Shai, her competitive spirit was reignited while watching from the crowd.

Tears of joy and relief followed her victory, as she expressed her emotions both on and off the court. ”I was trying not to cry when I was walking out.” Osaka's win marks her first victory against a top-10 player in four years. She encountered challenges since returning from maternity leave in January.
