US Open 2018: Serena Williams Stunned By Naomi Osaka, 5 Statistics That Will Make All Asians Proud

First Asian to win a Grand Slam Singles title in over four years

Naomi's win has come more than four years after Li Na's Australian Open victory in January 2014.

Naomi's victory is only the third ever - among men and women - for any Asian player in grand slam history. Li Na of China won the first grand slam title by an Asian - the French Open in June 2011, and a second title - the Australian Open in January 2014. This is the first title for an Asian player in grand slam singles since Li Na's last title.

Kei Nishikori of Japan is another Asian player who has come quite close, reaching the 2014 US Open and reaching at least one grand slam quarter-final every year since.
