GAME, SET, MENTAL HEALTH - The radio documentary





I'm excited to publish the full Game, Set, Mental Health radio documentary, taking a deeper look at the mental struggles tennis players face whilst on the professional tour, how they and the sport's key organisations are working to break the stigmas surrounding the still taboo topic of mental health within the sport, what support is already on offer from the two pro tours - the Association of Tennis Professionals and the Women's Tennis Association - and how this will be further improved for the future.


Thank you to all my contributors, especially to Noah Rubin and all the work he does with Behind The Racquet, Simon Higson of the ATP, Kathy Martin of the WTA and Kiki Bertens.


Make sure you read the rest of my blog guiding you through my journey of creating this project and providing you with more background information and case studies on this subject.


If you are affected by any of the issues mentioned in this documentary you can get mental health support in the UK by calling the Samaritans at 116 123 available 24/7. Or you can find additional help and support here.
