I’m able to, I guess, bring someone that also helps me take care of Shai, and she’s also a pretty relatively happy girl all the time.” Further, she added, “So, she just has a lot of energy and I have to play with her a lot to tire her out so sometimes. It’s a little tiring to go from practice to running around with her, but I wouldn’t say that’s anything that I would complain about, I think. I don’t know; it’s a bit of a dream to be here with her.” ADVERTISEMENT Article continues below this ad via Reuters Tennis – Italian Open – Foro Italico, Rome, Italy – May 9, 2024 Japan’s Naomi Osaka celebrates winning her round of 64 match against Ukraine’s Marta Kostyuk REUTERS/Guglielmo Mangiapane The former world number one is quite open about her time with her daughter.
