TOKIO
Fue un gran momento para Naomi Osaka. También para el nuevo Japón, la lucha contra la injusticia racial, las deportistas y el tenis.
La tenista, cuatro veces campeona de torneos del Grand Slam, encendió el viernes el pebetero durante la ceremonia de inauguración de los Juegos Olímpicos de Tokio.
La elección de Osaka como último relevo de la llama olímpica ganó muestras de aprecio en todo el mundo.
Desde luego en Japón, donde nació Osaka y el país por el que juega. Pero también en Haití, un país sumido en problemas, donde nació el padre de la tenista. Y desde luego en Estados Unidos, donde reside la deportista mejor remunerada del mundo, quien además se ha pronunciado en contra de la injusticia racial.
But she has often received an uncomfortable welcome in Japan because of her race, with her family having moved to the US when she was 3. Her emergence as a top tennis player has challenged public attitudes about identity in a homogeneous culture that is being pushed to change.

Naomi Osaka carries the Olympic Torch. She is the first tennis player to light the Olympic cauldron. It’s always a mystery until the last moment who gets the honour of lighting the cauldron. Sadaharu Oh, Shigeo Nagashima and Hideki Matsui were among the baseball greats who took part in bringing the flame into the stadium. And in a country where baseball is the No. 1 sport, Osaka was not necessarily expected to be given the ultimate honour.
TOKYO â What a moment for Naomi Osaka. For the new Japan. For racial injustice. For female athletes. For tennis.
The four-time Grand Slam winner lit the cauldron at the opening ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics on Friday.
It was a choice that could be appreciated worldwide: In Japan, of course, the country where Osaka was born and the nation that she plays for; in embattled Haiti because thatâs where her father is from; and surely in the United States, because thatâs where the globeâs highest-earning female athlete lives and where she has been outspoken about racial injustice.
