Tennis-Golfer Wie West praises ‘incredibly brave’ Osaka
Osaka announced her decision on Monday, a day after she was fined $15,000 for not attending a post-match media conference and threatened with expulsion after her first-round win. “I thought what Naomi did this past week was incredibly brave,” Wie West said on Tuesday. Osaka has received support from her country Japan, her sponsors, leading sporting figures and tennis fans since she announced her decision.
