My goal was the quarters. OSAKA

Naomi was pretty happy with her overall performance to comment

“It means a lot. But for me, I feel like I was much more emotional for the quarters. And then now I feel like it’s sort of like business again.

Quarters was sort of my mental goal, like every time I played a Grand Slam. And then after I went into the quarters, I kind of want to keep going, so I feel like I have to be focused again and keep trying really hard.”
