The first round of the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells delivered a tough blow to fans, with Naomi Osaka and Petra Kvitova both suffering early exits from the tournament.
Naomi Osaka, who is still working to regain her form after an extended hiatus due to an abdominal injury that forced her withdrawal from the Australian Open, fell to Camila Osorio 6-4 6-4.
Despite the loss, the four-time Grand Slam champion, who won her first WTA title at Indian Wells in 2018, remained upbeat in her post-match media interaction.
