The champion of four Grand Slam tournaments spoke about her goal for this season

The world’s first racket Naomi Osaka named the main goal at the end of the season.

“For me, the Asian series is full of opportunities. I always perform well at the end of the year and always look forward to it. Especially considering the two tournaments in Japan – for me it’s time to find strength and show very good results.

Now the goal is to be seeded at the Australian Open. I would really like that. I would like to avoid meeting Caroline Garcia (smiles). Yes, I just want to be seeded, but I won’t put too much pressure on myself. I just go at it day by day,” Osaka said.

Earlier, the Japanese woman started working with coach Patrick Muratoglu.

It should be noted that Naomi played twice with the Frenchwoman in the first round of the Australian Open – in 2021 and 2024.

Osaka won the Australian Open twice (2019, 2021).
