❤❤❤❤❤
Love you Naomi ❤
Love her overall cultural connection with the outfit. Do your thing Naomi.
Girl you're too funny
Too many questions about her outfit. We know Naomi has great outfits. I have yet to hear a reporter ask a male player about the inspiration for their outfit.
I'm calling it. Naomi Osaka will win AO. She looks confident in her game.
❤
I really like Naomi Osaka and respect her as a player and person. I appreciate creativity and individuality, but personally I feel a Grand Slam entrance should stay more traditional. Just my opinion, still wishing her success.
Hope you win the next game ❤
Love this
“She made it work with what she had” 💀
Brill Naomi
Naomi had a solid opponent. Many seeds are free sailing.
❤❤❤
If she loses in any of her upcoming matches, she should walk out in whatever dress she walks in with, be it a jellyfish, racoon, or snail 😅
"KOO KOO FOR COCO PUFFS"……………..
A JELLYFISH!!?? REALLY!! "HOUSTON……WE HAVE A PROBLEM
Well if fashion is her priority then so be it but we as fans would love for you to lift another grand slam trophy especially now as a Mom.
shes so sweeeet
rooting for you Naomi! go get it!!!!
Not strange, just clearly someone who suffers from arrested development. She even talks like she is still 12 years old.
I watched the match and got upset when the other poor girl lost the match. The young talented opponent comes from a war torn country. But who cares.
It just shows that the media and audience is prejudiced against European athleties.
Maybe with all thatt prize money tennis players should be donate to Bushfire disaster happening.right now
Osakas hair is beautiful.Great player
Did people forget she was injured a few months ago, then had baby then injury again stopped her , I truly thought she was done with Tennis, saying all that , without the juries, I think think she would of whipped most of those girls off , , number one at the moment is just a hard hitter that’s all , nothing special, oh and there’s another one that kind of looks like a younger v Williams , if she plays more Aggressive, she will in 2026 ❤
one of a kind ❤
Can AO please give us the complete entrance from the tunnel all the way to her chair? The.visuals with her walking over the water was astonishing.
❤❤❤
Tennis & fashion = ❤
Absolutely go Naomi for doing what she loves & doesn't let be stopped by the possibility of getting hate on social media.
YOU GO GIRL 💯
✌🏻
Osaka, you are certainly stealing me back into your corner, girl!
Bien por la dama de blanco. 👻😂👍
Yea the outfit was great we love Naomi but without the outfit you guys wouldn't have questions to ask? 😮
I actually love this woman. She has a beautiful soul – you can’t beat a bit of quirkiness. She plays amazing tennis too, so what’s the problem. People need to take the stick out their 🫏.
There's NOTHING "strange" about you my love! Ascribe to and for yourself words that GOD says about you; no one else. 🙏🏾💞🎾
She is iconic to me because she knows people will hate on her regardless of whether she wins or not and she still wears it. It takes courage. And it's not lost on me that's why I love her!♥️
Oh Naomi I just don't know honey lol..
Naomi has no that power that she has had before anymore, unfortunately
Bethany MS, she made it work for what she had haha. Osaka didn't mean it that way but that was way offensive LOL
NAOMI! NAOMI!! NAOMI!!! I L-O-V-E THIS NSOMI OSAKA! CONFIDENT & REAL! I LOVE YOUR EXTRA! BUT I ALSO LOVE THIS MATURE & WISE NAOMI! YOU HAVE ALREADY ACCOMPLISHED IN YOUR LIFE WHAT MIST PEOPLE HAVEN'T! SO TO GIVE YOURSELF GRACE, YET FIGHT LIKE THE PRO YOU ARE, HOW CAN IT NOT–"BE ALL GOOD"! GREAT PERSPECTIVES WITH WHERE YOU ARE! LOVE YOU! "STRENGTH & HONOR"! Y-E-A-H!
Naomi!!! Your fit was FIRE … Don’t listen to the haters.
It’s not your playing was bad but she was good and she was tried her best and nothing to lose!
Happy birthday to you🎉🎉🎉!
She totally wasn’t like you and could compared with you because you are God’s favorite tennis player!
For someone that pretends to be shy, she sure is an attention seeker… that outfit was awful. Seems to me she was mocking the Europeans from the 19th century and how they dressed when tennis started.
It is tennis match, not fashion show! Her entrance at first round AO match is quite over the top! What a contrast when she came out wearing facial masks to support “black lives matters “
👏 Congratulations Naomi! 👏 Way to step it up! Keep up the great momentum and strive to make it to the Finals and Win! 🙏😄✌️ Greatest Wishes always! おめでとうございます🎉最高！優勝に狙って頑張り続けて下さいね！👏😃👍🎾🍀✨⭐
Does she actually speak Japanese? I never heard her speaking in after all she represents Japan

Over the hump. Great tournament ahead.
It's been beautiful to see her grow over the years. In the way she talks, you can just see the growth in her maturity from when she first won all those years ago now, and can see as she has developed in confidence. She's so humble and I really hope she continues to go onto big things, both in this tournament and future ones.
I love Naomi 💗💗💗 She is one of a kind ! The outfit was amazing ❤❤❤❤
I can listen to her press conferences allllll day.
