Naomi Osaka was responding to some lewd Instagram messages which she had received from a fan earlier

Two-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka tweeted that she has had to deal with several deceitful people in life and that it inspires her to be honest.

The Japanese tennis star, who had come up with an honest evaluation of the incident that had unfolded earlier was of the opinion that such events only helped her to become even more transparent and true.

Osaka’s recent tweet read: “I’ve had to interact with so many snakes in my life it honestly keeps inspiring me to be as transparent and honest as possible. Like ewww look at you being all slimy and deceitful over there. Couldn’t be me”.

The 22-year old was on Tuesday, the victim of some rather disgusting and creepy messages which were sent to her by a fan who had initially wanted to call her.

However, things soon turned a little ugly when he started sending some really disrespectful and lewd messages in the following months. Osaka had shared snapshots of the messages sent to her via her twitter page with a cheeky caption that read: “Things aren’t going as planned for this man. I feel for him”.
