“Kinda ironically to win my first trophy back on the surface, which I thought was my worst,” she originally wrote on X. “It’s one of my favorite things about life, but there’s always room to grow and develop. Thank you to everyone who accompanies me on this journey, I know it’s turbulent, but it’s also really fun and I’m grateful.”

She then had a message to all critics who said she would never win again.

“This is for anyone who constantly has S — to say lol,” she wrote on x with a picture of a job application.

Osaka has seven career singles titles and is 287-166 overall. She was ranked as high as No. 1 in January 2019 and was ranked No. 50 from last January.

Her matches have been thrown into the limelight. She split from her coach in September after another round of exit at the US Open. She has not reached it at least the semi -finals of a Grand Slam tournament since 2021.

At this year’s Australian Open, she lost in the third round.
