Athlete Pressure & Mental Health - Behind the News

Описание к видео Athlete Pressure & Mental Health - Behind the News

One of the world’s best tennis players has pulled out of the French Open. World Number 2, Naomi Osaka, said she didn’t want to speak to media because of the effect it could have on her mental health, and organisers weren’t happy. They fined her after she didn’t show up to a post-match press conference, and threatened to kick her out of the tournament. Osaka withdrew before that could happen, but lots of people have supported her decision. It’s raised lots of questions about the pressure we put on athletes, and what their responsibilities are outside of actually playing their sport.
