Osaka had joined hands with FTX in the hope of increasing women’s involvement in the field of cryptocurrency. This was not Osaka’s first cryptocurrency agreement. She is a part of Autograph, an NFT platform co-founded by Tom Brady. However, that might not work in Osaka’s favor as she is bound to lose money after the company’s dire state. FTX needs $4 billion to remain solvent.

Things might have gone down for the Japanese player with the bankruptcy of FTX. However, even then she stays as the highest-paid WTA tennis player in 2022. Serena Williams is also behind her, and Emma Raducanu is the third highest-paid WTA player. But Osaka has not been able to perform nicely on the court this year.

Recurrent injuries hindered her gameplay, and she eventually withdrew from Wimbledon. Four-time Grand Slam champion hopes to make a stronger comeback in 2023.
