Naomi Osaka trifft bei den Italian Open auf Iga Swiatek

Naomi Osaka reagierte überrascht auf ihr Achtelfinal-Duell gegen Iga Swiatek bei den Italian Open 2026 und bezeichnete die Auslosung als etwas grausam. Die Japanerin, die durch einen Sieg gegen Diana Shnaider weiterkam, trifft damit zum vierten Mal in ihrer Rivalität auf die Polin.

Osaka erfuhr nach ihrem Zweisatzsieg von dem Aufeinandertreffen und dachte sofort über die bevorstehende Herausforderung nach. Sie war in ihren beiden vorangegangenen Turnieren auf Aryna Sabalenka getroffen und bereitet sich nun darauf vor, gegen eine der stärksten Sandplatzspielerinnen der Tour anzutreten. Das Match markiert ihr erstes Aufeinandertreffen, seit Swiatek bei den French Open 2024 in einem Dreisatz-Duell die Oberhand behielt.
