Why was she booed by both sides?

Naomi Osaka: After Serena storm, US Open champion could have the last laugh

While She was booed in the US open, she was also discriminated in Japan by some Japanese ethnicists.
They say "she doesn't look like conventional Japanese. Why do we have to treat her as a Japanese citizen?"
So, she is backlashed by 2 reasons
・As a Japanese, she defeated the US champion
・As a daughter of the Haitian American, she can't be seen as Japanese.

She symbolizes how sad it is to be biracial one.
Even though globalization is proceeding rapidly, there seems to be a lot of people who can't understand racial diversity.
