Naomi Osaka has been going through a lean patch on the court. She withdrew from the French Open midway and delivering underwhelming performances at the Tokyo Olympics and Cincinnati Open. However, despite all controversies, the Japanese tennis star has attracted loads of big brands.

Osaka has most recently collaborated with globally renowned clothing brand Levi’s which will bring in the big bucks for the talented youngster. Needless to say, the charismatic tennis player is definitely a sports star big companies want to invest in. Moreover, apart from Osaka, two more tennis players made their way into the top 10.
