Naomi Osaka has entered the NFT arena in a major partnership with NFL Super Bowl champion Tom Brady. The four-time Grand Slam singles champion recently joined the advisory board of Autograph, an NFT platform Brady co-founded with the aim to curate a digital collectibles experience from some of the biggest brands and celebrities. Osaka’s NFTs dropped as part of The Preseason Access collection on Wednesday, Aug 25, in hopes of giving fans an additional way to connect with the 23-year-old tennis star.
“It seemed like a very cool opportunity, and when Tom Brady asked me to join the Advisory Board and create my own NFTs, I knew I couldn’t say no. There are some real sports legends working with Autograph — Tiger Woods, Wayne Gretzky — it’s pretty awesome to be in their company,” Osaka told.
