Naomi Osaka seems to be in a fantastic space right now. She has been playing one of the best tennis of her great career and she reached the 4th round of the Australian Open without dropping a single set and without conceding more than 4 games per set.
There was a rather memorable moment during Naomi’s match against Ons Jabeur when a butterfly gently landed on her nose. Of course, Osaka was very careful to put the butterfly back to safety.
Here the lovely videos.
