Naomi Osaka, the Japanese tennis ace and the four-time grand slam champion, has many friends on and off the court. Although she is shy, she forges a bond with people due to her straightforward nature. However, none of her friends can compete with her companion, Butta.
Butta is a French Bulldog whom Osaka adopted last year amidst the backlash of skipping Wimbledon 2021. Therefore, it can be said that he is in charge of preserving Osaka’s mental well-being.
