[ESP - ENG] ¿Mucha Presión para Naomi? Marketa Vondrousova Supera a Osaka y la Despide de los Juegos Tokio 2020. (Opinión) || Too Much Pressure for Naomi? Marketa Vondrousova Beats Osaka and Dismissed from the Tokyo 2020 Games. (Opinion)

Hello friends, lovers of the sports world, we have been pleased to see an edition of the Olympic Games with a greater significance motivated by tennis; the exciting lighting of the cauldron by Princess Naomi Osaka and all the expectation that revolves around the possible achievement of an important step towards the Golden Slam, by Novak Djokovic; who has become the athlete with more accompaniment in the selfies of the tenants of the village. Undoubtedly, there is an interesting attention to the tennis players (despite the absence of Nadal, Federer, Serena and company). However, the most relevant favoritism in the women's division has stumbled with the surprise factor, this in reference to the elimination of the consummate number one of the ranking, the Australian Ashleigh Barty, at the hands of the Spanish Sara Sorribes, in consecutive sets; and to what is added today, the fall also in straight sets of Naomi Osaka, the beautiful and talented hostess of the games.

Planteado el encuentro de octavo de final ante la checa Marketa Vondrousova, con la cúpula del Ariake Tennis Park cerrada (presencia de lluvia), es Naomi quien obtiene el sorteo para servir primero, pero aunque no se le nota molestia física, está sacando muy suave (en comparación a su potente saque). No obstante, la chica zurda de Sokolov y número 42 del ranking, vino a jugar y con un revés bastante rasante, aprovecha la suavidad del saque rival para meter sus golpes, incluso lució lanzando en varias ocasiones un drop shot que descolocó a Naomi; con estas técnicas algo básicas, la checa rompe hasta en tres oportunidades el servicio nipón; y aunque una desconocida Osaka no encuentra manera de enmendar sus errores no forzados, Marketa muestra una volea controlada y se lleva el set 6 – 1, en 24 minutos.

Planned the eighth-final match against the Czech Marketa Vondrousova, with the dome of the Ariake Tennis Park closed (presence of rain), it is Naomi who gets the draw to serve first, but although she does not feel physical discomfort, she is serving very soft (compared to her powerful serve). However, the left-handed girl of Sokolov and number 42 of the ranking, came to play and with a pretty flush backhand, takes advantage of the softness of the rival serve to get her shots, even looked throwing on several occasions a drop shot that dislocated Naomi; with these somewhat basic techniques, the Czech breaks up to three times the Japanese service; and although an unknown Osaka does not find a way to amend their unforced errors, Marketa shows a controlled volley and takes the set 6 - 1, in 24 minutes.

Un segundo set con Naomi propinando un break, me hace despertar para ver su vuelta al partido; pero aparecen nuevamente sus momentos vacíos y la checa iguala las acciones (nuevo quiebre incluido con una doble falta). La japonesa lo intentó pero sencillamente no pudo, parecía que su mente no estaba en el partido. Luego de estar igualadas 4 – 4, Marketa avanza con su servicio y su oponente le ayuda a ganar, lanzando pelotas largas, tanto al paralelo como al fondo. Nada que hacer, termina el partido con pizarra 6 – 1 y 6 – 4 en solo 67 minutos.
Lamentable derrota para una súper favorita Osaka, que se vio totalmente desconcentrada; cometiendo una gran cantidad de errores no forzados, incluso errores infantiles como: sacar y quedarse parada, con muy baja capacidad de reacción.

A second set with Naomi giving a break, makes me wake up to see her return to the match; but her empty moments appear again and the Czech equalizes the actions (new break included with a double fault). The Japanese tried but simply could not, it seemed that her mind was not in the match. After being tied 4 - 4, Marketa advances with her serve and her opponent helps her to win, throwing long balls, both to the parallel and to the back court. Nothing to do, the match ends with a 6 - 1 and 6 - 4 score in only 67 minutes.
Regrettable defeat for a super favorite Osaka, who was totally unfocused; committing a lot of unforced errors, even childish mistakes like: serving and standing still, with very low reaction capacity.

Opinión

Este resultado adverso para Naomi Osaka, llenó los medios de comunicación de diversas reacciones por parte de sus seguidores y detractores. Las opiniones se dividen entre su problema mental (ansiedad, miedo y depresión) y su “aparente” actitud descuidada de pasar mucho tiempo en las redes. Este último concepto en mayoría por parte de sus detractores, quienes castigan a una profesional de 23 años por decir abiertamente lo que piensa y mirar por encima de las gríngolas del sistema mediático. Por mi parte es más preocupación por lo vi en el partido, que por lo que dicen de ella. Y se pierde una gran oportunidad de avanzar a las opciones de medalla, desaprovechando la eliminación de la rival más fuerte del torneo (Ashleigh Barty) a manos de la española Sara Sorribes. Cualquier jugador(a) puede tener un mal día y estar alejado de las competiciones durante dos meses también afecta notablemente.

Opinion.

This adverse outcome for Naomi Osaka, filled the media with various reactions from her fans and detractors. Opinions are divided between her mental problem (anxiety, fear and depression) and her "apparent" careless attitude of spending too much time on the networks. The latter concept in majority by her detractors, who castigate a 23 year old professional for openly speaking her mind and looking over the media system's cracks. For my part it is more concern about what I saw at the party, than what they say about her. And she misses a great opportunity to advance to the medal options, wasting the elimination of the strongest rival of the tournament (Ashleigh Barty) at the hands of the Spanish Sara Sorribes. Any player can have a bad day and being away from competitions for two months also affects significantly.

Con estas gacelas fuera del torneo olímpico (Osaka, Sakkari y Barty), se abre las oportunidades para Garbiñe Muguruza y la ucraniana Elina Svitolina, quienes tienen mejor ranking y experiencia.
De igual manera, no se debe restar mérito a la checa Marketa Vondrousova, quien ha ganado su tercer partido y ahora se enfrentará en los cuartos de final, a la hermosa española Paula Badosa.

¡Hasta la próxima!

With these gazelles out of the Olympic tournament (Osaka, Sakkari and Barty), opportunities open up for Garbiñe Muguruza and Ukrainian Elina Svitolina, who have better ranking and experience.
Similarly, do not detract from the Czech Marketa Vondrousova, who has won her third match and will now face in the quarterfinals, the beautiful Spanish Paula Badosa.

See you next time!
