Naomi Osaka wants to take a break from tennis

On Friday night,Naomi Osaka lost to Canada’s Leylah Fernandez in a U.S. Open upset.

She said in the post-match news conference; 

“I feel like for me, recently, like when I win, I don’t feel happy. I feel more like a relief. And then when I lose, I feel very sad,”  “I don’t think that’s normal.” 

“trying to figure out what I want to do.” 

“I honestly don’t know when I’m going to play my next tennis match,” she said, apologizing as she wiped away tears. “I think I’m gonna take a break from playing for a while.” 

You do you Naomi. Mental health is very important.
