Naomi Osaka broke her silence following the emotional situation that took place at the BNP Paribas Open this week.
A heckler brought the four-time grand slam winner to tears during her match on March 13. She ended up losing the match.
Because of this incident, the topic of Osaka’s mental health became a big discussion once again in her career. Osaka has previously taken time off from tennis in order to focus on her mental health.
Osaka tweeted a message on Thursday regarding her current well-being.
“Very proud of myself for reaching a point in my life that despite the lows, I would still rather be myself than anyone else.
