Tennis prodigy Naomi Osaka is ready to leave her French Open retreat and decision to skip Wimbledon behind and meet friends this week for a much-needed outing.
The 23-year-old professional tennis player and her close friends were spotted leaving their $ 7 million Beverly Hills home with multiple bags and suitcases in tow on Friday. Osaka loaded her Louis Vuitton luggage into an SUV while wearing comfortable clothes for the trip.
The athlete wore a short white T-shirt, black tights, a baseball cap and her glasses, as well as a pair of Beats by Dre headphones.
After leaving the French Open, Osaka also decided not to participate in Wimbledon.
« Naomi won’t play at Wimbledon this year, » said a statement from her team. “She takes some time with friends and family. She will be ready for the Olympics and looks forward to playing in front of her home fans. «
Apparently Wimbledon contacted her to try to win her for the London tournament and said it was » completely open to any discussion « , without success.
While some, like tennis legend Boris Becker, condemned Osaka for leaving the French Open, others, like actor Will Smith, supported their decision.
Even Meghan Markle reached out to the child prodigy to offer her support as she understands how much mental health can be in the spotlight.
