Welcome back to Tennis Frenzy, today on the channel we are going to check out Why did Naomi Osaka withdraw from Wimbledon? Tennis star still recovering from Achilles injury + other related news. Naomi Osaka, the Japanese tennis star who remains a one-surface wonder, will not play at Wimbledon later this month, she announced in a social media post on Saturday. Osaka and her team indicated that the withdrawal was due to tendinitis in her left Achilles’ tendon and that she would have played if healthy. After losing in the first round of the French Open last month with her left ankle wrapped, Osaka, a former No. 1 whose four Grand Slam titles have all come on hard courts, told reporters that she was leaning toward not playing at Wimbledon since both the men’s and women’s tours stripped the Grand Slam event of ranking points in response to Wimbledon’s ban on Russian and Belarusian players.

“I feel like if I play Wimbledon without points, it’s more like an exhibition,” Osaka said in Paris. “I know this isn’t true, right? But my brain just like feels that way. Whenever I think something is like an exhibition, I just can’t go at it 100 percent.” But Osaka, as it turned out, was not healthy enough to play in any grass court tournaments this month, even those that offered ranking points. She withdrew from this week’s WTA 500 event in Berlin, citing the Achilles’ tendon injury, and on June 9 she posted video of herself running on an underwater treadmill. “My Achilles is being stubborn still,” she wrote in the post. “I must be aging or something.” Her social media post on Saturday included photos and videos of her receiving acupuncture and ultrasound treatments on her left Achilles’.
