Naomi Osaka, 22, earned $37.4 million in prize money and endorsements over the last 12 months, unseating Serena Williams as the highest-paid female athlete in the world. Osaka is also the highest ever for a female athlete, passing the $29.7 million payday Maria Sharapova earned in 2015.
Osaka burst on the scene in 2018 when she beat Williams at the U.S. Open for her first major title at 20 years old. She followed up her U.S. Open victory by claiming the Australian Open title in 2019 for back-to-back Grand Slam victories. saka has 15 endorsement deals with partners Nike, Nissan, beauty brand Shiseido and racket-manufacturer Yonex each paying her seven figures. Her deal with Nike is worth more than $10 million annually and runs through 2025.
Her eyes look Japanese. Her demeanor is somewhat demure too. Maybe that is Japanese?

Why do women make so much less in endorsements? LeBron gets about $55 million in endorsements. I don't think it's fair. Times up for this kind of fucking sh*t.

Tamaki Osaka was born in an area of Japan where racial purity was still strictly upheld. The coastal town of Nemuro had remained true to Tokugawa’s decree in the 1630s to maintain a racially pure Japan. Tamaki grew up with these principles, but her perception of the world changed when she went to high school in Hokkaido’s capital, Sapporo.
Osaka’s stay in Sapporo coincided with the arrival of the first wave of foreigners. Leonard was among this wave, and fate brought him together with Tamaki. Leonard, a Haitian, helped change Tamaki’s perception of the world, and they soon started dating.
Such as a relationship was taboo in Nemuro, but Tamaki didn’t care. Tamaki and Leonard’s relationship flourished in secret, but after a while, Tamaki had to reveal the relationship to avoid a planned marriage. Tamaki’s father was enraged by the fact that she was in a secret relationship with a black foreigner.
Tamaki’s father condemned her for tarnishing the family name. Tamaki and Leonard moved to Osaka, where they found employment. Tamaki and her family would remain estranged for more than ten years. Naomi and her sister Mari arrived shortly after the family established residence in Osaka.
Leonard’s motivation to teach Naomi and Mari how to play tennis came when he saw Venus and Williams playing together to win the French Open doubles in 1999. He was impressed by how Richard Williams, the sisters’ father, trained Venus and Williams to become virtually unbeatable on the court.
Leonard followed Richard’s blueprint and vowed to teach his daughters how to be tennis champions. It became easier for him to do so when the family moved to Long Island from Osaka. Naomi’s dad used instructional books and DVDs to come up with ways to train his daughters.
I think tennis is in the sweat spot where the females are actually as good to watch as the males. Because men now can hit it so hard half the time the server just wins. But yeah female sports where it about people running into each other or throwing and hitting things very hard like cricket, every single sport call football, baseball, rugby it'll never be the same. Then against woman's rugby is pretty good. Absolutely massive women who could pulverise you beating the shit out of each other because the refs are much more amature. Some 100kg Islander women just wading through a line of women
looks like a brown chink, that other negro that plays basketball is the one that looks 0% chink
Connor Butler
the reason why female tennis is promoted more than the males in the first world is because niggers can't win for shit in that, the day a nigger wins a grand slam you will see every news media sucking his dick for eternity
The French Open's banned the catsuit but I think it was more of the threat of Serena starting a trend of it and skirts declining.

Women's hockey keeping checking and tackles down actually help it a lot because compared to male hockey here in Canada the games have better pacing.
A lot of the stigma comes from people assuming something won't get views just like how networks assumed that shows with a female lead won't do good despite that being proven wrong several times or that girls don't watch boy shows.
Austin Ortiz
wait, serena looks like a black male, yeah that makes sense, firstoids love black males, they can't see that ones in the male division
