At this Stage
On paper a mismatch; in practice, much the same. Naomi Osaka, the 14th seed and a four-time Grand Slam champion, followed her 6-1 7-5 win over Elsa Jacquemot by dispatching qualifier Anastasia Gasanova 6-3 6-2 without facing a single break point. Gasanova had been one of the quiet stories of the fortnight — four qualifying wins without dropping a set, then a comfortable first-round defeat of Emiliana Arango — but the serving gap proved unbridgeable. The curiosity is where Osaka now stands: the third round, the stage she has never once cleared at Wimbledon. Daria Kasatkina is next, and history is on the line in the most modest possible way.
