Naomi Osaka has opened up about her own experience with social media abuse while addressing the racist attacks Coco Gauff was subjected to after a controversial incident at the 2026 China Open.
Gauff’s campaign at the WTA 1000 event in Beijing was marred by the discourse surrounding her decision to halt play during a rally with Sun Xinran in their third-round clash. The American explained that a flickering light on the side panels had distracted her, which led to the point being replayed despite Sun having won it.
