The Japanese-born Osaka was first announced as a Nissan Brand Ambassador at the Nissan Global Headquarters in Yokohama, Japan. Along with being so accomplished at such a young age, Osaka is also the first Japanese player to win a women’s singles Grand Slam. While born in Japan, she moved to the United States at the age of 3 with her parents and competes for Japan.
“This week has been a dream come to life, and I’m so honored to represent Japan and Nissan on the world stage. I was drawn to partner with Nissan because of its strong Japanese DNA and global competitive spirit. The brand is always challenging expectations, and I look forward to bringing its vision for driving excitement to new audiences around the world.”
