Naomi Osaka Says She Hasn’t Had Fun Since Winning the Australian Open

Naomi Osaka, ranked second in the world, says that she hasn’t had fun playing tennis since winning the Australian Open back in January of this year.

Osaka, 21, has struggled since the big win, falling to second in the world behind Australia’s Ashleigh Barty, and becoming the first No. 2 seed to lose in the opening round of Wimbledon since Martina Hingis of Switzerland in 2001, when she lost in straight sets 7-6, 6-4 to Yulia Putintseva back in July.
