“It’s not my sport. If you asked me about tennis, before being immersed in it because of Naomi, I could only give you Venus and Serena Williams, you know? Because they’re just a part of the culture,” said Cordae, who featured on the cover of GQ magazine with Osaka.

The couple started dating two years ago, but they went public with their relationship only last year. Their first date was at a Los Angeles Clippers game. “I just remember seeing that there were so many people who wanted to take a picture with him. And I just thought it was really cool how friendly and welcoming he was with everyone,” Osaka recalled of their first date.
