Four-time Grand Slam winner Naomi Osaka won her first WTA title since triumphing at the 2021 Australian Open after beating Slovenia’s Kaja Juvan 6-1 7-5 in the final of the L’Open 35 de Saint-Malo — a WTA 125 tournament on clay.

It was the 27-year-old Japanese player’s first WTA title since she became a mother in July 2023.

“Kinda ironic to win my first trophy back on the surface that I thought was my worst. That’s one of my favourite things about life though, there’s always room to grow and evolve,” Osaka posted on X.
