    Former World No: Former World No.1 Naomi Osaka kept up her winning ways at the Paribas Open with a 7-5, 6-3 victory over No.14 seed Liudmila Samsonova in the second round.

    Playing the fifth tournament of her return to tour after her 2023 maternity leave, former champion Osaka took 1 hour and 37 minutes to battle past Samsonova in their first meeting on Saturday.

    Four-time Grand Slam champion Osaka posted her 34th career win over a Top 20 player -- but her first in almost two years. Before Saturday's victory, Osaka's last Top 20 win came over Danielle Collins in the 2022 Miami Open quarterfinals, according to ATP tour.
