After her win there, Naomi split with her coach, Sascha Bajin. This came as a shock to many people has Sascha had worked wonders for her. And looking at what happened afterward, Naomi probably regretted doing it.

After the split, the Japanese star hired coach Jermaine Jenkins, but extremely poor results followed. She suffered early exits in 2019 and even failed to defend her US Open title. Due to such poor results, Naomi split with Jermaine towards the end of the season.

To help her get back into match-winning form, Osaka hired her current coach, Wim Fisette, seeing as he had success with many other players. Unfortunately for her, she did not get to return into that kind of form due to the coronavirus pandemic suspending the WTA Tour.

The Tour is scheduled to return in August assuming the virus is contained by then. The Japanese star will be hoping for it so that she may finally return to her match-winning form and, hopefully, win some Grand Slams again.
