No reason has been given for Naomi Osaka’s withdrawal
Former world number one Naomi Osaka, 25, has withdrawn from the upcoming Australian Open just over a week before the start of the first Grand Slam event of 2023.
Osaka, winner of the Australian Open in both 2019 and 2021, has plummeted to number 42 in the world rankings and has not appeared in a WTA tour-level match since last September.
No reason was given for her withdrawal from the event. Ukrainian player Dayana Yastremska has been promoted to the tournament in place of the former champion.
Osaka has not been seen in action on the court since she retired from her second-round match at the Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo, where she was the defending champion, and has won just a single completed tennis match since last May.
