Osaka played under the American flag, it’s very unlikely that these opportunities would exist. Japanese companies would have no reason to court her and U.S. brands would have other higher-ranked young guns to consider, like Madison Keys and Sloane Stephens. But as Japan’s top-ranked player, Osaka has the full attention of the country’s top brands, whose sponsorship fees can run far higher than those of their Western counterparts. There’s a reason Nishikori, despite never having won a Grand Slam title, surpassed bigger stars like Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic in endorsement income over the past year, with $33 million, according to Forbes. Only Roger Federer earned more. “Kei’s been a trailblazer for Naomi,” Duguid, her agent from I.M.G., says. “He’s opened doors for tennis in Japan and across Asia.” But with Osaka’s combination of youth, authenticity and cultural diversity, he says, “she might have more global appeal.”

Cringeworthy x infinity but the Serena dikkriders will give her a pass because they are so heavily invested like Kanye stans that ignore his Trump/slavery/feeding fashion designers bullshyt because they’ve been spending all of their $ on Yeezys.

You don’t play tennis breh :wtb:

Yeah Serena the goat..idk what he's talking about.....no mechanics smh

I remember tennis scouts talking about watching Serena strike when she was like 10 years old and it was among the cleanest, most pure form they'd ever seen in a child.

But now Art Barr is coming into the house to say that Serena has poor mechanics. :dead:

Some of this thread is obnoxious. Ol girl won and it reads like a pity party, "Wow this is terrible, I feel so bad for her"-- the fukk??? :dahell: she WON


How many times did Serena go lff on the ref though??? I thought it was one outburst on from IG but it sounds like she was arguing a lot.

have you ever been in the process of kicking someone's ass in Madden or 2k while they are having a complete melt down. claiming the game is cheating them?


stop.

the programming is skewed and flawed in ea and sega games.

serena lost because she is mechanically flawed.
you can't beat power versus power with no mechanics.

she is mechanically flawed.
you played tennis and got anywhere near challenger circuit to dispute me, breh.
you talking about a woman generating power, versus the men's game which is power.

mechanically men are more sound because we have to be.
serena is mechanically sound hence why she would get wiped the floor with by a male player.

you don't play tennis at all, and don't know wtf you talembout at all.

serena is not a clean striker of the ball, and is mechanically flawed.

if you knew tennis you would know that.
if you had a power based game from the ground and backcourt like i did you would not say different'

you don't play tennis, you never achieved in tennis and you don't know shyt about tennis period.

now stfu.

art barr

always the unactualized talking.
