Teaming up with Uninterrupted and Tennis Channel, Naomi Osaka sent out a message of positivity to the world.

"I feel like we kind of concentrate too much on negative things and not too much on positive things," the 22-year-old said. "In the end I hope that everyone has a good day and not too many negative things are like in your area, or space of being."

Osaka has definitely molded into her own strong person over the past few years, which saw her pick up two Grand Slam titles on court and grow up off it.

Uninterrupted has been working with Netflix and Film 45 to create a documentary about Osaka, starting in August of 2019 and initially planning to culminate at the Olympics in Tokyo this summer. With the Olympics moving to 2021, it's unclear when fans will get to see the footage.

Ranked No. 10 and Japan's brightest female star, she put out a statement following the rescheduling news.

"Of course I am disappointed that it won't happen this year, but we'll all be ready to go stronger than ever in 2021!" she wrote. "Sport will eventually unite us all again and be there for us always, but that time is not now."

Osaka's last match before the coronavirus shutdown was a third-round loss to Coco Gauff at the Australian Open.
