Osaka exits Australian Open with pregnancy-linked abdominal setback
Naomi Osaka withdrew from the Australian Open just before facing qualifier Maddison Inglis, citing an abdominal injury linked to body changes from recent pregnancy. She said warming up worsened the pain and she'll undergo further tests, noting her body has changed since becoming a mother. The withdrawal puts Inglis into a fourth-round matchup with Iga Swiatek; Osaka has a history of abdominal issues and emphasized she felt physically healthy aside from the issue and wanted to protect her long-term health.
