OSAKA REACTS

I didn’t get a chance to play my last Grand Slam final in front of fans so to have this energy here really means a lot. Playing Grand Slam tennis is a privilege right now and it’s something I don’t take for granted.

We played each other in the US Open a few months ago and I told everyone you’d (Brady) be a problem tonight – I was right! I know your friends and family are proud of you and I’m sure we’ll have many more matches in the future.

It was special to play in front of fans in my first Grand Slam final, hopefully I’ll be standing up here with the winners trophy next time. Tonight wasn’t meant to be but hopefully there is many more.
