Osaka agreed when asked if being a good clay-court player required similar skills - patience, resilience and adaptability - to being a mother. On being reunited with Shai, she added: "Being away from her was really tough, but I called her every day."Yesterday she walked for the first time, so I was really happy about that. It's really cool to have her here."
