Osaka, playing her first Wimbledon since 2019, went down 6-4, 6-1 on Centre Court in less than an hour.
The two players were level-pegging at 3-3 in the first set before 17th-ranked Navarro broke to love and went on to take the first set.
Navarro pounced at the start of the second set, breaking twice to race into a 4-0 lead and broke again to seal the match.
What a performance 💪
