Here’s me running on a underwater treadmill because my Achilles is being stubborn still 😬 I must be aging or something.
Naomi Osaka's Wimbledon participation still in doubt after recent pullout from Berlin
WTASunday, 12 June 2022 at 05:00
Naomi Osaka withdrew from the WTA grass event in Berlin and it leaves her Wimbledon participation shrouded in mystery as well.
Osaka injured her Achilles in Marid and never really got fully healthy over the next few weeks. Even if she was fully healthy she openly admitted skepticism over participating at Wimbledon due to points stripping that occurred. With news of the WTA reinstating half the points back there might be some motivation for Osaka to play at SW19 if she is fully healthy.
A recent pullout from the WTA event in Berlin leaves that in major doubt. It's almost confirmed that she probably won't play anything until Wimbledon with her name still on the entry list there. Osaka recently posted a video of her running on an underwater treadmill confirming that her Achilles is still bothering her. With the type of injury, it's quite unlikely she will be fully fit for Wimbledon. Time will tell.
