Doing press conferences after matches is something every tennis player has to do.

She renounced her American citizenship. Let’s move on to a new topic.

She wanted fame on her terms. Sorry, it doesn't work that way.

If she can't take the heat get off the court.

She has been professionally active for at least the last four years. She could probably use two or three years away from that pace. It’s for the best that she leave the competition,
otherwise, her self centered, uncooperative behavior will inspire others to do the same. Leave now, before you get put out officially.

I think she actually does suffer from OVERWHELMING anxiety and depression. That can be more than some sufferers can deal with. I’ve known people like this.

I don’t predict that Naomi will make a ton of money in product endorsements. She normally has one expression on her face at any given time: Glum/ detached/ bored.
Might benefit from viewing a Smile Tutorial online.

The occupation of “professional athlete” exists because they are entertainers and marketing spokespeople. Ms. Osaka seems to believe she has enough juice to buck the system. It remains to be seen how it will turn out.

Milana Vayntrub
@MintMilana
Been getting a lot of “why are they placing her body like that in those ads?” Well, I direct the ads. I place myself like that. And it’s because of the thousands of unwelcome comments I receive about my body. You’ve lost the privilege of looking at it until I feel safe again.”

“I am not consenting to any of this,” Vayntrub said

Apparently she thinks people calling her sexy, cute, beautiful and commenting on her hair style is ‘sexual harassment

Looked her up and read this on her wiki: “Osaka has gained significant recognition as an activist, having showcased support for the Black Lives Matter movement in conjunction with her matches. She was named one of the 2020 Sports Illustrated Sportspersons of the Year for her activism largely as part of her US Open championship run, and was also included on Time's annual list of the 100 most influential people in the world in both 2019 and 2020. “

Sounds like a typical lefty. Hope she goes the way of colin karpernik

I think they should pay her to keep quiet and we would all be happy.

Well, after all she IS both black and Japanese, so I suppose that would/could be two strikes against her here on this forum. ;-)

just sayin’
