When Naomi Osaka opened up about her anxiety and depression at the 2021 French Open, it sparked a conversation in sports — and society at large — about mental health and the importance of addressing such issues.

Shortly after Zverev's post-first round loss press conference at Wimbledon concluded, one segment of his interview rapidly made all the headlines.

Alexander Zverev's concerning confession surrounding his mental health has sparked reactions from Carlos Alcaraz, Emma Raducanu and other tennis stars.
