PREGNANT OSAKA TO MISS 2023 SEASON

NAOMI OSAKA has revealed she is pregnant and will miss the rest of the 2023 season.

The four-time grand slam champion (right), 25, last week pulled out of this month’s Australian Open with no official reason given for her withdrawal but yesterday posted a picture of a baby scan on Instagram.

‘Can’t wait to get back on the court but here’s a little life update for 2023,’ read Osaka’s caption. She added: ‘I know I have so much to look forward to in the future, one thing I’m looking forward to is for my kid to watch one of my matches and tell someone, “That’s my mom”. I hope I’ll see you guys in the start of the next one cause I’ll be at Aus 2024.’
