Japanese wildcard Naomi Osaka won against Serb qualifier Olga Danilovic 7-6 (6), 7-6 (4) to reach the second round of the Bad Homburg Open at the Bad Homburg vor der Höhe on Monday afternoon.

“It’s my first grass-court win of the year, so I’m really excited about that,” Osaka said on court, after the match.

“I think I have potential [on grass], but everyone else is also really good,” the main-draw wild card continued. “I can never take it for granted, the wins. Just super excited that I won today.”

Osaka, ranked No 56, will play American Emma Navarro, the No 5 seed, on Tuesday. The 4-Slam winner lost her first round in Berlin last week.
