The No. 2-ranked Japanese tennis star lost to Putinseva 7-6 (4), 6-2. Osaka was previously beaten by Putinseva at the Birmingham Classic – a warmup event before Wimbledon. It follows her third-round loss at the French Open.

It’s been a rough couple of months for Osaka, who started the season out strong by winning the Australian Open. Seven of Osaka’s eight losses in 2019 have come against opponents ranked outside the top 20.
