Naomi Osaka (23 = Nissin Foods), who is aiming for the second victory in the world, scored her most of 15 consecutive victories and won the first game of the tournament. Direct victory over Anastasia Pavlychenkova (Russia) in 39th place by 6-1 and 6-2. “At first I was a bit nervous, but I’m happy to win. Thank you all for coming.” The 16th Australian Open was the second biggest winner in Japanese women’s history, along with Kimiko Date. In the second round, they will face the winner of Herzog (Slovenia), who is 51st, and Garcia (France), who is 43rd.

Continuing from last year, Osaka is the center’s opening game for the second year in a row. The face of the tournament was decorated with victory. At match point, when the opponent’s front is out, pose lightly with the left hand. I showed a smile. I easily broke the first round without any movement.

Since entering Australia, there have been few scenes of speaking during the match. On this day, in the second game of the second set, at the moment when the opponent’s service game was broken, “Camone!” The roaring male Takebi has revived. “Camone” when you keep your service game from the sixth game. Like the anime “Kimetsu no Yaiba” that he loves, he is “totally focused” and sets his own record for the most consecutive wins.

◆ Australian Open Tennis will be broadcast live every day from February 8-21 on WOWOW Live. Scheduled to be delivered simultaneously in WOWOW on demand.
