Osaka withdrew from the 2021 French Open after pronouncing a media ban before the tournament started.

The World No.2 released a statement on Monday evening that revealed a continuing battle with depression.

“I never wanted to be a distraction and I accept that my timing was not ideal and my message could have been clearer. More importantly, I would never trivialise mental health or use the term lightly. Osaka was caught in the middle of Serena Williams’ furore with U.S. Open final umpire, Carlos Ramos even though Osaka went on to trump Williams and win her first Grand Slam title.
