'I definitely only know this world, the tennis world, and just being away from that for a long time, it was new for me.'
During her pregnancy, Naomi didn't completely erase tennis from her view. She still trained in a lighter capacity, but struggled to deal with the restrictions that came with doing it while pregnant. It ultimately affected her mental health.“I definitely only know this world, the tennis world, and just being away from that for a long time, it was new for me,” she said. “I think it was just the whole new situation and not being able to train like I wanted to.
""It kind of made me feel like I just had to stay at home and, you know how doctors tell you not to travel after a certain amount of weeks, it just felt like a lot of restrictions. I think that was what it was.”But until she makes her official return, Naomi said motherhood is treating her well."Shai means God's gift and I think that's what I wanted her to feel like — she was a gift to me and her dad [rapper Cordae].
