Tennis – Qatar Open 2019: Naomi Osaka Withdraws Due To Back Injury
World number one Naomi Osaka will miss one week from now’s Qatar Open with back damage.
The Japanese, who a month ago won a second progressive grand slam by beating Petra Kvitova in the Australian Open final, endured a comparative issue a year ago that saw her miss the Hong Kong Open.
It would have denoted Osaka’s first competition since her triumph in Melbourne, however the 21-year-old will rather set aside opportunity to recuperate.
