No. 1 Naomi Osaka Upset by Katerina Siniakova in French Open Third Round

Naomi Osaka's hopes of winning a third successive Grand Slam title ended on Saturday when she was knocked out of the French Open by No. 42 Katerina Siniakova in the third round.

Osaka, ranked world No. 1, lost 6-4, 6-2 at Roland Garros, ending a 16-match winning streak in Grand Slams. Osaka committed 38 unforced errors in the defeat.

After struggling to win her first- and second-round matches, Osaka continued that trend early on Saturday. Siniakova broke Osaka's serve at 4-4 in the first set before the Czech player lost two set points. Siniakova was then successful with the third to close out the set against Osaka.
