Correct. She cashed out on American training then blasted America for being racist while clinging onto Japanese citizenship which is one of the most homogenous countries on earth.

The great irony is she chooses to live in a white neighborhood mansion in Los Angeles.

Hmm I guess racist white America just isn’t so bad for black millionaires like LeBron James and Naomi Osaka who choose to live in their rich white American neighborhoods.

She also lives in a mansion in Los Angeles.
Maybe her conscience got to her after endorsing BLM.

She certainly didn’t have a problem talking before.

She put the spotlight on herself by being the #1 ranked tennis player, then she turned it up a notch by jumping on the BLM train. Then she realized she was way too introverted to be a “woke social activist” and decided to “retire” in her LA mansion with Japanese citizenship.

That reasonable. I mean why would you call white America racist when you willingly live next to them?

And they pay to watch her play.

She made her money. Perhaps she’ll play the martyr like Kaepernick.

Osaka’s weak. Let her play elsewhere.
Nope...Ash Barty, Martina Hingis, and Kim Clijisters also burned out...many of the top men suffering from burnout too.. Ever hear of Bjorn Borg?

Be jealous of Naomi Osaka all you want...is set for life as it is...Will probably come back too.

Were those players “burnt out by 18”?

LMAO at being jealous. She’s a martyr and won’t be missed if she hangs it up. After all, she can’t talk, so she won’t be an announcer.

Burnout happens at different ages. Naomi Osaka is actually 23 now...will be fine.

Look at the men suffering from burnout now...Nadal and Djokovic are on the list. You obviously don't play tennis. Was a grueling year round sport when I used to play competitive tennis years ago...even tougher now.

So in other words, 1 player in tennis history “by 18”.

Love your strawman argument. How long have Nadal and Djokovic played?

Sounds like you needed to train harder and it wouldn’t have been so grueling, and you might have been of significance.

She can always play in the JTA.

Monica Seles, too, although she had good reason to take a few years off.

I agree that Naomi Osaka will be back. I hope so - she's a fabulous player.
