Cirstea appeared to take exception to Osaka speaking to herself in between her opponent's serves. Fans are not permitted to make noise in between first and second serve.

Australian Open 2026: Naomi Osaka and Sorana Cirstea have awkward handshake after Osaka's second-round win
Naomi Osaka has apologised for "disrespecting" Sorana Cirstea in her post-match on-court interview after she received a frosty handshake and a telling-off from the Romanian.
After wrapping up a 6-3 4-6 6-2 win against Cirstea in the Australian Open second round, a smiling Osaka made her way to the net to carry out the post-match formalities.
But Cirstea gave a brief handshake before exchanging some words with the Japanese 16th seed by the umpire's chair.
Asked in her on-court interview what it took to get past Cirstea, Osaka said: "Apparently a lot of 'come ons' that she was angry about."
