US Open 2024: Naomi Osaka feels better as she returns to the site of two of her Grand Slam titles

Associated Press  

NEW YORK — Naomi Osaka is at the U.S. Open to compete for the first time in two years, and she said Saturday that returning to the site of two of her four Grand Slam titles gives her a boost — but not because she focuses on her past success there. No, Osaka explained, it’s more about hearkening further back, to the days when she was a child in New York and would come as a fan to watch “all the famous players that you could name,” such as Rafael Nadal, Serena and Venus Williams, and Maria Sharapova. !’” She added that “the only feeling I could liken how I feel right now to is being postpartum” and “I don’t understand why everything has to feel almost brand new again.” One issue was that she was having trouble with all of the surface-switching of late, from the red clay at the French Open to the grass at Wimbledon back to the clay at the Paris Olympics and now to hard courts. “After you see it, you’re kind of just free from the thoughts that muddle your mind.” Now, she said Saturday, she feels “way better now” and has been practicing “at a really high level.” “I hope,” Osaka said, “that I’m able to play matches at a really high level, too.” ___ AP tennis: https://apnews.com/hub/tennis
