Japan's Naomi Osaka holds the Daphne Akhurst Memorial Cup aloft defeating United States Jennifer Brady in the women's singles final at the Australian Open tennis championship in Melbourne, Australia, Saturday, Feb. 20, 2021.
Osaka improved to 4-0 in Grand Slam finals by grabbing six consecutive games to pull away in what initially was a tight contest, beating Brady 6-4, 6-3 at Melbourne Park on Saturday.
For me, I feel like every opportunity that I play a Slam is an opportunity to win a Slam,โ said the 23-year-old Osaka, who will move up to No.
I think if youโre not feeling OK, itโs OK to not feel OK,โ Osaka said.
And as much as Osaka makes plain that she wants to keep adding to her Grand Slam collection, there are larger goals, too.
