Excellent and clear statement. Too bad social media is then filled with pathetic people bashing her, probably out of a sort of frustration that she actually has a talent for something, while they don't have the ability to do anything else but doing nothing and sitting on their ass bitching about everything. I guess that's a quality too.

Seeking twitter mob approval is the LAST thing any pro athlete from the spotlight should do. Unless Osaka lives in some sort of yes men bubble that is.

 

As for "clear & excellent", well, she must be paying a lot of money for people to write such statement so they better be worth it. It's like those politicians who never write their own speeches to begin with :p

That fact that she's still pushing for change in this statement tells me that she still doesn't understand the situation. The system isn't broken, she is, mentally. Professional sport simply isn't for those who can't deal with the pressure that comes with it. She has to come to terms with it and either try to improve with the help of psychologists, or she needs to retire before her depression becomes worse. You can say that it's not fair, but hey, that's just how sports work. Some careers are cut short because they were born with some physical defect, the same can true for some athletes who don't have the right personality / mental traits for it.

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
