Naomi Osaka may be a two-time Grand Slam champion and a No.1 player but she’s still an inexperienced player on clay. In the quarterfinals of the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix, the 21-year-old Japanese faced a big obstacle in Donna Vekic, but the young superstar’s composure was as impressive as ever, as she recovered from a 5-1 deficit in the third set to confidently win the match in a tiebreak.
Interestingly, the first two sets featured just one break point each and both were converted, in the first set by Osaka, in the second by Vekic.
