Naomi Osaka will be back to competitions in Tokyo after her fantastic Us Open title.
The Japanese will face the world no.30 Dominika Cibulkova in the 2nd round (Naomi had a bye in the first) and this will be a tough match. In fact, Dominika had just a couple of good runs in Wimbledon (quarters) at the US Open (4th round).
