Japan’s rising star, Naomi Osaka, is currently on a break from tennis. Focusing on her mental well-being, she opted out of the French Open as well as the 2021 Wimbledon Championships.

Ever since, the 23-year-old has garnered world attention, with many speaking in favour of her and a few against her. Regardless, with very few public appearances since then, her sabbatical out off-court continues and seems to be giving her what she needs.

Recently, in a heartfelt post, Naomi’s team announced her collaboration with American multinational financial services, Mastercard. Greeting fans, Naomi appeared in the video to talk about her priceless moments on and off the court. “My priceless moment is when I take a step closer to my dream”, she says.

“Post Kudasai”- Naomi Osaka

The term ‘Kudasai’ means to give or to confer. Often used by someone making a request, Naomi shares her priceless moments, while asking fans to do the same.

In a photo contest by Mastercard, fans are asked to share pictures of some of their priceless moments in life. Talking about her own, Naomi says, “When I’m off the court, my priceless moment is travelling to different places around the world. Walking around the city, shopping and trying new food”.?
