“Naomi Osaka’s got to be very inspired by some very successful maternity ladies before her” – Pam Shriver
In a recent interview, Pam Shriver expressed her belief that Naomi Osaka would draw inspiration from Victoria Azarenka, Serena Williams and Elina Svitolina’s successful comebacks, upon returning to the tour after giving birth.
“It’s fascinating. I think Osaka’s got to be very inspired by some very successful maternity ladies before her, Victoria Azarenka, Serena Williams, Tatjana Maria, Elina Svitolina,” she told the WTA.
Shriver added that the four-time Grand Slam champion’s return was surrounded by additional “intrigue” due to the mental health struggles she faced prior to her maternity leave. However, the American expressed optimism about the former World No. 1’s comeback in Australia, anticipating a strong return fueled by her happy home life.
“This one has more intrigue because of [the mental duress discussions] that led up to the maternity leave. I think she comes back strong, with the perspective that you’ve got great things to look forward to at home. I’m looking forward to seeing her in Australia,” she added.
Osaka will aim to make a triumphant return at the Brisbane International, using it as vital preparation for the Australian Open which is scheduled to commence on January 14.
