Naomi Osaka withdraws from Roland Garros after media spat, reveals depression battle – Wide World of Sports
‘I have had a really hard time coping with that’
Naomi Osaka has withdrawn from Roland Garros the day after being fined for skipping media duties, the Japanese megastar announced on Twitter, while revealing significant problems with depression.
Osaka won her round one match against Patricia Maria Tig on the opening day of the French Open, playing on centre court, but then went through with her announced press boycott. It earned her a $US15,000 fine ($19,383), the threat of default from the Grand Slam event and possible suspension from future Slams.
