The first Asian player to hold the top ranking in singles, Naomi Osaka was born on October 16, 1997, in Chūō-ku, Osaka City, Japan to Tamaki Osaka and Leonard François. A fierce striker of the tennis ball, Osaka is just as timid and kind off the court. When at her best, there is close to nobody who can match her stroke-play and offensive prowess. In 2006, her family moved to Florida when she was nine years old so that they would have better opportunities to train.
Naomi Osaka turned pro in 2013; during her younger days, she used to train during the day and then study at night. Even though Osaka was living in the United States of America, her parents wanted her to represent Japan.
Her big breakthroughs came in 2016 and 2018, when she won the WTA Newcomer of the Year and her maiden Grand Slam title, respectively. So far, she has four Grand Slam titles to her name, and seven singles titles on the whole. She has hunted down some massive names like Serena Williams, Petra Kvitova and Victoria Azarenka during these summit clashes.
At the 2025 Auckland Open, Osaka defeated Alycia Parks in the semifinal to advance to the final. However, after suffering an abdominal injury after the first set, she has to retire, giving Clara Tauson a victory in the final. Osaka will play Caroline Garcia in the opening round of the 2025 Australian Open.
