Welcome to the only unofficial English-speaking website dedicated to the talented Japanese tennis player, Saori Obata.
Saori turned pro in 1996, but has only recently begun to realise her potential. In the last two years, she has beaten many top players such as Ai Sugiyama, Barbara Schett and Jelena Dokic, on her way to her highest ranking of 39.
Enjoy the site and keep supporting Saori in her efforts to get even higher!
