"I wish I would be able to do that" - Osaka on Swiatek

Iga Swiatek will miss the 2022 Madrid Open after pulling out due to some shoulder issues and Naomi Osaka reacted to it.

Osaka got a front-row seat to the Swiatek show at the Miami Open last month, as the Pole defeated the former No.1 6-4, 6-0 in the final. With her win on Sunday over No.4 Aryna Sabalenka in the Stuttgart final, Swiatek became the first player to win 23 matches in a row since Osaka during the 2020 to 2021 seasons. She said:

"I think it’s really awesome what she’s doing. I wish I would be able to win four tournaments in a row. I think to me she just looks really concentrated, which is really cool at such a young age. I think she has a goal, maybe we all don’t know about that goal, but it really looks like she has a purpose. It’s really cool to see her playing that well and I really want to play her on clay just to see what happens."
