[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Remember when Michael Jordan tried this at the All Star Game?  Never. Happened. Again. So she’s fine with the media when they cover her Black Lives Matter stance she made at the US Open last year and used her clelebrity to get out that message. But not to talk to as is required by the WTA?  She’s on wrong side of this. If her mental health was so fragile as talking to the press was too much, she shouldn’t have played. She here we are. But she will not be able to opt out of the part of the tournament that generates fan interest and therefore the $$$. [/quote]

- So, you’re arguing that it’s the chattering afterwards rather than the games themselves and the skills involved that generate interest? I guess things have really changed since I last seriously followed tennis.  
As to the mental health issues, you don’t need to agree with her stance to understand that many mental health issues do not have the same broad impact on every type of behavior or in every situation.  Social anxiety, for example, or phobias are focused impairments, even when the impairment is severe. [/quote]
