Naomi Osaka, the young tennis star, was mocked by fans for her latest tweet. Last year, Osaka gained notoriety when she chose to skip press conferences at the French Open to safeguard her mental health. As a result of her decision, all four Grand Slams joined forces to threaten her with harsher penalties, including disqualification. Despite her successful return to tennis in 2022, the Japanese star has struggled to win any titles. However, her off-court endeavors have been very lucrative.

The Japanese athlete had sported an “FTX” patch during her matches.
