Naomi Osaka net worth: How much could Osaka earn from Australian Open final?
NAOMI OSAKA is gearing up for the Australian Open final today against Petra Kvitova - but how much is the tennis star worth and how much could she earn today?
Naomi Osaka will aim to show there is a new serial champion in town when she takes on Petra Kvitova in the Australian Open final.
The unpredictable nature of the women's game has been demonstrated by the fact the last eight Grand Slam titles have all been won by different players.
Should Kvitova triumph, that would become nine from nine, but an Osaka win would not just stop the run, but also see the 21-year-old become a back-to-back champion after her maiden title in New York.
That success was, of course, overshadowed by the dramatic events of the contest against Serena Williams, and the hope must be that, if Osaka wins again, this time it is her moment alone.
Asked why she has seemingly found adjusting to life as a Grand Slam winner so straightforward where many others have struggled, Osaka said: "I love Grand Slams.
"This is a place I think is worth all the training. When you're little, you watch the Grand Slams, you watch all the players play the legendary matches here.
"For me, this is the most important tournament.
"There's only four of them a year, so of course I want to do the best that I can."

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Osaka’s wealth is estimated to be $8million (£6m).
The 20-year-old has collected over £2.5million ($3.23m) in tournament winnings since turning professional in 2013.
Forbes reported in 2016 that the youngster from Japan signed long-term sponsorship deals with broadcaster WOWOW and food brand Nissin.
The winner of the Australian Open will take home an impressive £2.56m, with the runner-up earning £1.42m.
