Naomi Osaka is bringing the Labubu fad to the U.S. Open. Osaka has played five matches at the Grand Slam tennis tournament so far this year, each time toting a different version of the popular plush toy attached to her racket bag. And she's won each time, too, eliminating No. 11 Karolina Muchova 6-4, 7-6 (3) on Wednesday night and Coco Gauff on Monday. Most recently she introduced fans to Andre Swagassi after tennis player Andre Agassi.
Days before the start of the 2025 season, Naomi Osaka made an ominous remark about her future in tennis. "I don't think I'm the type of player that would hang around," Osaka said, if her ranking didn't improve. "I'd rather spend time with my daughter if I'm not where I think I should be and where I feel like I can be."
