Taylor Townsend and Naomi Osaka are making waves this offseason — literally and figuratively!\u00a0<\/p>\n
The two stars set the Internet ablaze with a joint video posted to social media on Wednesday, where they could be seen dancing on a yacht to a mash-up of Minaj\u2019s 2012 song \u201cBeez in the Trap\u201d and 4 Non Blondes\u2019 1993 chart-topper \u201cWhat\u2019s Up?\u201d The remix has gone viral on TikTok, with creators blending Minaj\u2019s verses and Linda Perry\u2019s famous vocals to create a remix that\u00a0Rolling Stone\u00a0says that the video app “can’t get enough of.”<\/a><\/p>\n Looking cool on the clear-blue seas, Osaka stunned in a bejeweled blue swimsuit accented with multicolored beads, while Townsend wore black cut-out one-piece and layered in gold jewelry.<\/p>\n “In the ocean trap with @naomiosaka,” captioned Townsend on Instagram, where the post picked up nearly 100,000 likes less than a day after it was posted.\u00a0<\/p>\n Later, posing in a blue two-piece, a relaxed Osaka showed off more sun-soaked snapshots. “Beaches and I just get along.” she wrote.<\/p>\n Two of the Hologic WTA Tour’s touring mothers, Osaka and Townsend showcased an off-court bond more than once this season. After giving birth to son Adyn in 2021, Townsend returned to tennis a year later and had the best season of her career this season, which included an Australian Open win with Katerina Siniakova and an ascent to the World No. 1 ranking.\u00a0<\/p>\n At the US Open, where Townsend reached the fourth round in singles and was runner-up with Siniakova in doubles, Osaka credited her hard work — and joked that it was “sickening” that Townsend’s “hardware collection grows every tournament.”<\/p>\n But Osaka’s hardware collection grew this year, too. She reached two tour-level finals — the ASB Classic and the Omnium Banque Nationale — and also won a WTA 125 tournament in Saint-Malo, France. For the first time since 2021, the four-time Grand Slam champion finished in the Top 20 of the PIF WTA Rankings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Taylor Townsend and Naomi Osaka are making waves this offseason — literally and figuratively!\u00a0 The two stars set…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":279502,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[442],"tags":[49,48,82,593,5452],"class_list":{"0":"post-279501","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennis","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-tennis","12":"tag-text"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279501","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=279501"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279501\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/279502"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=279501"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=279501"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=279501"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
