He was asked a question and he answered. Nothing he said was directed toward anyone.
Oh lord I hate it when people play like they dunno what inference or implications are. Go ahead and keep acting oblivious.

He's right but he don't need to be an ass about it. Some people handle things better than others.
he is not being an ass about it though?

I doubt hed feel so tough if his elbow was injured and he could fuck it up permanently by playing another set

He's talking about mental fortitude, not playing through injuries. If Simone had suffered an injury this wouldn't be a story, it would just be like "sucks she got injured"

Face it. You are applying meaning to his statement that isn't clearly there. I'm not sure why you are doing this, but you are and you need to recognize it.

Mental health should be taken just as seriously as physical health but this is a clown world

Naw man you're just in denial. Plenty of people understand exactly what he meant. You're just going this route to defend what he says. And I know for sure you'll understand inference whenever it benefits your point of view.

Joker is just pissed off that Osaka is more beloved already than he ever will be.

And now you make assumptions about me. I see this is just something you do, I suppose.

The guy that was disqualified from the US Open last year because he was losing and hit a line judge in the throat with a ball out of frustration wants to talk about dealing with pressure?

Damn, I didn't realize tennis was a sport in which not having your head in the game could result in being paralyzed for the rest of your life, or worse. Sounds badass, I'm gonna have to start watching that shit.

Why can't people just say "I'm fucking stupid and don't understand mental health" and get that out of the way?

I hope humans still exist when everyone decides to finally give a damn about mental health.

I don't know how people wake up each day being hateful bigots without a shred of empathy. Mocking sick people is heartless and indefensible and the fucking mods don't even have a spine to crack down on all this bullshit we're seen since Simone Biles made the bravest decision of her entire life.

She shouldn't have gone to the Olympics at all but selfishly went anyway taking the spot of another athlete. That's not what I would call brave.

She didn't know it was going to go down like this, and she was there because she is the most highly decorated gymnast in the US. She had every reason to be there, and sometimes shit happens

And why, pray tell, would she purposely do that? No one would be calling her selfish if the twisties caused her to break her back and she had to pull out.

Everyone who criticizes her is a bad person.

He got DQd hes still a hypocrite that buckles under pressure. His comments are insensitive and stupid and like this topic shows in terms of mental health we have a long way to go before people take it seriously.

I'm entirely supportive of Osaka's and Biles' decisions, especially the latter as it seemed to bring a physical danger into play.
Djokovic is an asshole sometimes.
I also think this statements here are entirely reasonable for the questions he was asked and don't seem to be a dig towards either of them.
