As of now, it is unclear as to when would Osaka be back on the court. However, with the grass season beginning soon and the Berlin Open being an ideal preparation platform ahead of the Wimbledon Grand Slam, her participation in the latter, too, looks dicey now.

Meanwhile, a week after her withdrawal, Osaka thanked her fans for the support she gained, as she is currently at her residence in Los Angeles. "Just want to say thank you for all the love. Haven't been on my phone much, but I wanted to hop on here and tell you all that I really appreciate it," she wrote in her Instagram story.
