Heckling can be extremely demotivating for any athlete, regardless of winning or losing. An athlete dedicates their entire life to perfecting his or her art. The fact that they get booed or thrashed for their performance can really affect their mental health.
The recent tragedy of Japanese tennis player, Naomi Osaka being heckled at Indian Wells, is a perfect example of the negative impact heckling can have on an individual. The tennis champion, Osaka, was reduced to tears after being heckled for her recent loss.
UFC fighter Al Iaquinta also faced a similar situation in his bout against Jorge Masvidal. The crowd booed him even though he won the fight by a split decision.
