The mental health of a human being is often disregarded. It is as important as physical well-being. However, due to a lack of awareness and suitable mentorship, people find it difficult to express their mental health-related problems. Further, to raise awareness on this matter, various tennis superstars like Serena Williams and Naomi Osaka have opened up on the importance of this aspect.

Recently, the Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, and his friend Serena Williams got involved in a conversation about mental wellness.
