With the Australian Open 2021 just a month away, players are returning back to the court for practice sessions. As some went on an off-season vacation, it is high time that they gear up for the upcoming season. One of them to return recently was the Japanese tennis star Naomi Osaka.
Osaka returned for the first time after winning the US Open 2020 title. She didn’t play tennis in the remaining year due to a back injury. However, former World No.2 Tommy Haas recently shared a picture with Osaka on Instagram, updating fans about her training with him.
“Guess who did all the running,” wrote a cheerful Haas on Instagram.
