Injury scare for Naomi Osaka ahead of Australian Open

Associated Press  

AUCKLAND, New Zealand — Naomi Osaka’s fitness for the Australian Open is in question after the four-time Grand Slam champion and former No. “There are moments where it’s really difficult, where I do get down on myself,” Osaka said earlier this week. “Now I’m finally here and I’m putting up really good fights and I hope that I can keep continuing this way.” Osaka was the seventh seed in Auckland on her entry ranking of 57 and won her way to the final, beating Lina Glushko of Israel, Julia Grabher of Austria and Hailey Baptiste and Alicia Parks of the United States, dropping only one set. But I’m also, I guess, learning and trying my best every year.” “I do feel a little sad that my great role model is gone, which is Serena and, of course, Venus.
