About the Book

A deeply reported, revealing biography of tennis phenomenon and activist Naomi Osaka, telling the untold story behind her Grand Slam-winning career, her headline-making advocacy for racial justice and mental health, and the challenges of a life in the international spotlight

Naomi Osaka has been everywhere, but how did she get there?

Most tennis fans met the Japanese Haitian American player Naomi Osaka for the first time as they watched her win the 2018 US Open final in an unforgettably controversial and dramatic victory over her idol, Serena Williams. Since then, Osaka has galvanized the tennis world--and gained attention across the culture--not only by winning three more Grand Slams, but also by being fiercely outspoken on matters of social justice and mental health.

It is both her extraordinary talent and her unique point of view that have propelled her to the top of her sport and onto the front page of newspapers and magazines worldwide, making her, in both 2021 and 2022, by far the highest-paid female athlete in the world and a constant focus of conversation and debate on a wide range of social issues.

But until now, the story of the Osaka family's journey across the world to follow their tennis dreams--and how their youngest daughter found her power off the court--has remained little known. It is a story unlike any other, and Ben Rothenberg's biography will not only examine where Osaka came from but also show us where she's going. Through a riveting exploration of the ways Osaka has changed the game on and off the court, Rothenberg reveals the incredible impact Osaka has had in the wider worlds of business, social justice, and mental health.
