Fantastic news from Naomi Osaka that confirms that she has fully recovered from her abdominal injury.
The world no.1 looked in good form in Stuttgart where she reached the semifinal before withdrawing ahead of her clash against Anett Kontaveit.
Later, Naomi went to Mallorca to train at the prestigious Rafa Nadal Academy and apparently that was rather beneficial also because she managed to rest a bit to fully recover from her injury.
It’s not painful. OSAKA
During a recent interview with AFP, Naomi revealed
“I was just resting it. Of course I hit groundstrokes… it’s not like I could fully rest, but it’s not painful, so I think it’s looking good.”
Osaka in Madrid
Naomi will kick start her in Madrid against Dominica Cibulkova. The head to head is 2-0 for the Japanese that defeated Dominica 6-2 6-1 in both matches that were also played in the same location (Tokyo).
