Naomi Osaka’s return to the U.S. Open didn’t last long.

After a stirring, straight-set upset over 10th-ranked Jelena Ostapenko, Osaka looked capable of hanging around awhile in Flushing.

Instead, two days later, she bowed out in disappointing fashion, and Osaka had only herself to blame.



This wasn’t a case of necessarily losing to a superior player; Osaka beat herself after playing mostly mistake-free tennis in the brilliant opening-round performance.

Osaka committed 21 unforced errors in a 6-3, 7-6 (5) loss to unseeded Czech Karolina Muchova under the lights at Arthur Ashe Stadium on Thursday night.

Carlos Alcaraz just turned 21 in May. He settled for the silver medal at the Summer Olympics, and with plenty of those ahead, the Spaniard sensation will have plenty more cracks at the gold.

Same goes for tennis' four major tournaments. Alcaraz won the US Open in 2022, successfully defended his Wimbledon title in his previous Grand Slam start, and added the French Open to his rapidly growing collection of prestigious hardware this year, too.

But with how elite the guy is on the court, you'd expect him to at least get to the quarterfinals at each major from here on out....
