Naomi Osaka has been spotted leaving a California firing range in photos obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com after taking an indefinite break from tennis following her crushing US Open loss, which topped off a troubling few months for the Japanese sports star.
The 23-year-old looked downcast as she left The Target Range shooting range in Van Nuys on Monday with her boyfriend rapper YBN Cordae.
Dressed in head to toe black sportswear, she also stopped for some post-shooting fuel, picking up a couple of juices and some food from a store near to her $7 million Beverly Hills mansion.
Osaka's Labor Day outing came just three days after she tearfully announced her decision to take a break from tennis after crashing out in the third round of the US Open to 19-year-old Leylah Fernandez on Friday night.
Her first Grand Slam return ended dismally as she lost -7, 7-6(2), 6-4 to the Canadian teen, failing to defend her title.
Osaka's frustration was visible on the court as she smashed her racket during the grueling match before later announcing she would be taking a break from the sport, in the star's latest controversy after refusing to do press conferences and dropping out of the French Open in June.
