Japanese tennis has just won a single game on a clay court since May 2019. While speaking about the challenges on the clay court, she explained that it was actually the process of moving after a slide that was a tad bit difficult. "I actually do trust myself sliding [on clay]. I think it's just the process of moving after the slide which is a bit difficult." Needless to say that Osaka would be looking to improve her record at French Open 2021.
