Naomi Osaka on how fashion reshaped her identity beyond tennis

Four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka has spoken about how fashion has significantly changed how the public perceives her, attracting followers outside the tennis world. She noted that engaging with fashion has pushed her beyond her naturally introverted personality, connecting her with people from entirely different circles. Osaka recently reached the Wimbledon quarterfinals and is now shifting focus to hard courts, the surface on which she has claimed all four of her Grand Slam titles. Her upcoming North American hard-court season is expected to be a key stretch in her overall campaign this year.
