Naomi Osaka considering break from tennis 'for a while'
After losing in the third round at the US Open on Friday night, a tearful Naomi Osaka told the media she wasn't sure when she will next play a competitive tennis match and will be taking an indefinite break from the sport.
"Basically I feel like I'm kind of at this point where I'm trying to figure out what I want to do, and I honestly don't know when I'm going to play my next tennis match," Osaka said. "I think I'm going to take a break from playing for a while."
