Madrid Open 2025: Lucia Bronzetti Knocks Out Naomi Osaka In First Round

Naomi Osaka's struggles continued as she lost to Lucia Bronzetti in the Madrid Masters first round, 6-4, 2-6, 6-4. The Japanese star's form remains inconsistent, with her last notable performances dating back to 2018-2021. Osaka has faced setbacks this year, including retirements due to injury in Auckland and the Australian Open, and unimpressive showings in Indian Wells and Miami.
