Four-time Grand Slam singles champion Naomi Osaka is shifting her focus to the Paris Olympics after a disappointing early exit from Wimbledon. The Japanese superstar lost to American Emma Navarro in the second round in less than an hour on Centre Court. Osaka admitted to feeling short of confidence during the match, leading to doubts trickling into her game, resulting in a 6-4, 6-1 loss. Despite her early Wimbledon exit, Osaka is now ranked at 113 and is looking forward to representing Japan at her second Olympic Games on July 26. Osaka reached the third round of the Tokyo Games in 2021 and is determined to perform well at the upcoming Olympics in Paris. She expressed her intention to prioritize training for the Olympics and mentioned that she might end up liking the clay courts more than grass, following a good performance at the French Open. Osaka, who returned to the tour in January after giving birth to her daughter Shai, is now focused on preparing for the Paris Olympics and will plan her schedule accordingly. She is looking forward to the challenge and is determined to do well at the upcoming Olympic Games.
