Since Naomi Osaka's official comeback, every move of the Japanese girl has been the focus of attention from the outside world.
Although her comeback in Brisbane was not a success, considering that this was only Naomi Osaka's first stop of the new season, and she has been away from the competition for a long time, even if she stopped in the second round, many outsiders still have confidence in her Australian Open. . Unexpectedly, the French girl Garcia was selected in the first round of the Australian Open. While Osaka lost to her opponent, she also set a rather embarrassing record: unlocking the first round of the four Grand Slams. Before facing Garcia at the Australian Open this year, the Japanese girl was defeated by Ujvank and Anisimova in the first round of the French Open in 2017 and 2022 respectively; she lost to her cousin Putintseva in the first round of Wimbledon in 2019 , and the first round defeat to American girl Collins at the 2022 US Open.
From being the queen of hard courts that many people feared before, her record after her comeback has gotten worse and worse. As for whether Naomi Osaka can return to the top, the Japanese girl's ability has begun to be questioned by some outsiders.
"I don't think I am the kind of player whose goal after coming back is to reach the quarter-finals of a Grand Slam. Even though reaching the quarter-finals of a Grand Slam is already a good result, this is not the reason why I am willing to stay away from my daughter." Osaka In an interview in Abu Dhabi, Naomi opened her heart for the first time to respond to the outside world's expectations and doubts about herself. She also reiterated that her comeback was not purely about pursuing results, but also about setting an example for her daughter. .
Before her comeback, Osaka Naomi once said frankly that her goal is to win eight Grand Slam championships. Although the current comeback situation does not satisfy the outside world and herself, this goal will not change.
"I still believe that I am making progress every day, and I also think that I can get better, and I hope that I can really become stronger. I have always been the kind of person who will set a particularly high goal for myself, and then Even if I only achieved 25%, the 25% result is still super incredible." After seeing Naomi Osaka suffer a first-round defeat at the Australian Open, supporters of the Japanese girl were worried that such a blow might make Naomi Osaka His confidence in his comeback was thwarted. Now that he sees the former world No. 1 being so positive and optimistic about his comeback, he finally puts this worry aside.
Many people still have full confidence in Naomi Osaka, believing that at the age of 26, she can still return to the core position of the women's tennis. This is why everyone feels that Naomi Osaka, who is also a mother-level player, is more favored than Wozniacki and Kerber.
remembers when Osaka Naomi came back for the first time, the situation at that time was quite similar to now. At that time, Fiset was under a lot of pressure. However, in just a year or so, the cooperation between Fiset and Naomi Osaka gradually became better, winning two major titles in a row, the US Open and the Australian Open. The momentum of winning the championship shocked the fans.
Since it is possible for the first time, Naomi Osaka, who is in her golden age, is currently with the strong assistance of Feisette, and of course it is still possible to become a tennis legend again. Therefore, when Naomi Osaka was eliminated in the first round of the Australian Open and she and Fisette were once again controversial, the Japanese girl's supporters immediately retorted, "Why are you so anxious? It's just begun. It's not yet clear who is laughing at who in the end." "I firmly believe that this pair of masters and apprentices who have shared hardships will be able to use their performance on the field to slap those who currently look down on Naomi Osaka and Feisette in the face.
In an interview, Osaka Naomi also revealed another biggest reason for her comeback: her body.
Naomi Osaka said frankly that it is said that when a woman gives birth to a child, she goes through a journey through hell and exhausts herself so much that she cannot walk immediately after giving birth. Not so for her. She was able to walk freely just after giving birth to her daughter.
When the doctor saw her like this, he quickly put her on the bed and even suggested that she use a wheelchair to get to the ground. In order to convince the doctors that she could indeed walk without any problems, Osaka demonstrated on the spot, which surprised the doctors and nurses present.
This incident revealed by Naomi Osaka also shocked fans and netizens. She bluntly said that Naomi Osaka's body is really incredible. She is probably as strong as Queen Serena Williams. Even after giving birth, she would not be able to be like her. " It seems that Naomi Osaka was born to eat athletes, and her body is really good."
In addition, when talking about who she most wanted to compete with, Naomi Osaka specifically mentioned Li Na.
"I really hope I have the opportunity to compete with Li Na, because she was my other idol besides Serena when I was growing up." Naomi Osaka said that she was deeply inspired by Li Na's success that year. After regarding her as her idol along with Serena Williams, she also dreamed that one day she could reach the top of the Grand Slam like Li Na. She has already competed with Serena Williams. If she can compete with Li Na one day, then in Osaka's view, life will really be complete.
However, Li Na has retired. Unless the Chinese tennis legend comes back, Osaka Naomi wants to compete with Li Na. She will have to wait until she retires and participates in the Seniors Tournament before she can compete with Li Na.
As the most successful female player in Asia, Naomi Osaka currently holds four Grand Slam championships, and has even reached the top of the world in women's singles. Her achievements have already surpassed Li Na's. Perhaps it was because he saw the Japanese girl still thinking about Li Na after becoming famous, comparing her to Queen Serena Williams in his mind. Osaka Naomi's move also won the favor and praise of many people, and she became a fan. Not a few.
"I have always been a patient person, I believe I can get there eventually." As for when she can make a strong return, Osaka Naomi also gave her answer in Abu Dhabi. It will not exceed the end of this year, and she believes she can definitely do it. . (Source: Tennis Home Author: Moon River Starry Sky)
