For NaomiOsaka, this was bigger than tennis. ❤️⁣ ⁣ Before stepping back on court at the Mubadala Citi DC Open, Osaka hosted a cookout that brought her fans together after feeling family like love and connection from Black women in D.C. 🫂⁣ ⁣ She is chasing another title run and creating the kind of spaces she wants to see in tennis. 👏⁣ ⁣ Next up: Round of 16 matchup vs. Ashlyn Krueger tomorrow. 🎾⁣ ⁣ #tennis #womenssports #naomiosaka
