Explaining a sports marketing rule from @betherewearthat

The creator explains the reason why tennis player Naomi Osaka was asked to remove her custom white kimono at Wimbledon. She starts by presenting the situation as a surprising news story, shows footage of the outfit, and explains its pop culture inspiration. The creator then reveals the core reason: the outfit was not made by her sponsor, Nike, which violates the Grand Slam rulebook regarding unapproved brand logos, and she shows a screenshot of the rule and identifies the actual independent designer.

Transcript excerpt

Yesterday, Naomi Osaka was asked to remove her garment from the Wimbledon court, and the reason might surprise you because the reason has to do with the fact that the garment is not Nike. If you've been following Wimbledon, you might have seen Naomi Osaka walking out on court wearing this all white kimono. The fit was actually inspired by Oren Ishii from Kill Bill. If you're a Quentin Tarantino fan, you know what I'm talking about. I always look forward to her rank slam fits. I think she brings amazing fashion to tennis. When she was out on court, the umpire requested that she remove the garment completely from the court. The grand slam rule best states that you cannot wear a brand logo not approved before, during, or after a match. In Osaka's case, that brand would be Nike. The kimono was designed by a Tokyo based independent designer named Hana Yagi.
