However, visibly nervous Naomi Osaka did not display her usual face although remaining combative she largely gave in the 3rd set [6-1].

It took 2:26 to Sloane Stephen (8th overall) to defeat Naami 7-5, 4-6, 6-1 and win the first victory of the Red Group
Recall that Naomi (4th in the world) plays in the Red Group composed of Angelique Kerber (Germany, 2nd since 21st October), Sloane Stephens (USA, 8th) and Kiki Bertens (Netherlands, 10th)
