I am a fan. It's the job. Take some time off and get healthy. You have a great future and the sport needs kids like you to pave the way for future gens. Thats a gift and a curse. Ironically it's what you have worked so hard for. Media, quit being jerks & bullies.

…she took a stand that was bold & although she indicated it was related to her mental health pimping her is more important…for the sport, media and the fans…she was naomi b4 the sport wanted her, she’ll be naomi when she leaves the game…that’s the most important part…

Without the media there is much less money for the players. You don’t want to face he media, then skip the tournament, someone else will be happy to have the spotlight!

True that

Wait until she only responds in Japanese.

And, preemptively, suggesting the fine should go to charity.

That's just completely moronic, and I say that as a journalist. Sure, it would be annoying not getting just a little, but I respect people's choice not wanting to talk to me.
