In each of her Grand Slam title runs, Naomi Osaka showed that she's beyond capable of performing under pressure. In a quiz about herself, though, she was quicker to get frazzled.

"I can’t handle stress that well," she'd write afterward along with a skull emoji. (Of course, she was selling herself short.)

A player she'd trade places with for a day: Gael Monfils

Osaka, seeded No. 2 at the Gippsland Trophy Australian Open lead-up event, opened her tournament with a 6-2, 6-2 win over Alize Cornet. It marked her first WTA match since winning the US Open.
