Marketa Vondrousova’s shot somehow landed on the back line, within arm’s length, to give her a 4-3 lead in the second set. She then sailed by Viktorija Golubic of Switzerland in the second round in 65 minutes. “I feel like there’s a lot of things that I counted on that I couldn’t rely on today,” Osaka said. Osaka briefly reversed the momentum early in the second set when she jumped out to a 2-1 lead and reached game point. I played amazingly in the first set, and then the second set was really tough.
