Naomi Osaka wants to make a statement in 2026. After a 2025 where her most consistent version was seen following her return in 2024, the Japanese reached the final of the WTA 1000 Canada and the semifinals of the US Open<\/a>. However, she is aware that she has a lot to work on if she wants to become the world’s best tennis player once again.<\/p>\n

And the starting point for this new Naomi Osaka<\/a> begins at the 2026 Australian Open<\/a>, a place where she has won 2 of her 4 Grand Slams. Therefore, she faces the beginning of the year with positive feelings, grateful to feel healthy and convinced to keep growing as a player.<\/p>\n

Naomi Osaka reveals the aspects to improve in her tennis for the 2026 Australian Open<\/p>\n

“I played the United Cup for the first time, so it was a very nice experience for me. Although we lost early, I had a lot of fun and was able to play two matches, which was positive. I feel quite good for this tournament. I feel better, I feel healthy, and that’s the main thing I can ask for right now.”<\/p>\n

“During the preseason, I worked on many things with Tomasz Wiktorowski and my goal is to be a better player. There were points at the US Open that I regretted, and hopefully, when this tournament ends, I can look back on it without that feeling.”<\/p>\n

Feels at home when she’s in Melbourne<\/p>\n

“Obviously, my best memories are related to the two titles I won here. But I also value simpler things, like having dinner with my team, going to my favorite restaurants, or going for a bike ride near the water. This morning I was able to do it and enjoyed it a lot. I try to enjoy the city as much as I can.”<\/p>\n

Knows which weapons to sharpen for 2026<\/p>\n

“The first match of the year is always tough. There are a lot of nerves and a desire to do well. I remember that match and I could hardly breathe from the coughing I had. My main conclusion was that I want to be more aggressive and more determined with my game. My defense has improved, allowing me to take a bit more risk.”<\/p>\n

“During this preseason, with Tomasz Wiktorowski, I mainly worked on decision-making. It helps me be more aware of what’s happening in each point, to trust my shots, and know when to move forward. He has a lot of confidence in my ability to hit the ball, but focuses on the decisions between shots.”<\/p>\n

With a clear purpose for 2026<\/p>\n

“To be myself without apologizing. Have fun and stand firm in the decisions I make. It has also been an honor for me to be involved in certain projects that show aspects of tennis that are not always seen. I believe it’s important for people to be aware of it,” concludes a Naomi Osaka who seeks more aggressiveness in her tennis to fight for her third Australian Open.<\/p>\n
