Two-time US Open champion Naomi Osaka is gearing up for her return to the Grand Slam stage after receiving a wild card entry into this year's tournament.
The 27-year-old Japanese tennis star won her first major title at Flushing Meadows in 2018 and clinched the title once again in 2020. In addition to her US Open victories, Osaka has also secured two Australian Open titles, establishing herself as a dominant force on hard courts.
Last year, Osaka welcomed a daughter into her family and has since been focused on regaining the form that once propelled her to the world number one ranking.
Despite a recent setback at the Cincinnati Open qualifiers, where she was eliminated, Osaka remains optimistic about rediscovering her championship-winning form. The US Open begins on August 26th, and fans around the world are eagerly anticipating her performance on the court.
