Despite record-setting momentum, the sports industry has continued to ignore the economic viability of women’s sports.
Sports Illustrated’s “The Athlete Activist” of the year honours top athletes who have “turned athletic fame into a platform for social activism.”
Osaka won the US Open 2020 Women’s Single title by beating Victoria Azarenka 1-6 6-3 6-3 in the final.
Showing her support in the Black Lives Matter movement, fourth seed Osaka walked out of her semifinal clash at the Western and Southern Open last week.
Osaka tweeted, “Hello, as many of you are aware I was scheduled to play my semifinals match tomorrow. However, before I am an athlete, I am a black woman.”
According to Forbes “Among all tennis players, only Roger Federer made more than Osaka from endorsements.”
As per Forbes magazine, Naomi who is 22 has earned $37.4 million in the past 12 months and has become the highest-paid female athlete.
The rising tennis star Coco Gauff will now face the winner of Sofia Kenin vs Zhang Shuai in the fourth round of Aussie Open.
“It was really fun — my sister was there. She made me paddleboard, and then the current took us and I almost died,” Osaka said in an interview.
