STORYLINE:
Two-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka took to the Brisbane skies in a helicopter, alongside Australia's Fed Cup player Kim Birrell on Thursday.
The pair took in breath-taking views of the city and also looked down on the Brisbane International venue and Pat Rafter Arena centre court.
After landing back on the ground, Osaka then experienced her first taste of the Australian dessert, Lamington.
The defending Australian Open champion will bid to make the perfect start to her 2020 season at the Brisbane International - a tournament which the 22-year-old has never won previously.
Her triumph in Melbourne last year earned Osaka the world number one ranking, but she has since slipped down to third with Ashleigh Barty now at the top.
Of Barty, Osaka said "of course, she is (world) number one, so she has the best slice."
