5. NOT TRUE, according to Politifact

"...Reuters reporter Sudipto Ganguly said he asked Djokovic the following question: "Novak, you would've heard about Simone Biles yesterday talking about mental health and the pressure of performing. You are in this position going for the Golden Slam, you know, there is no more pressure on a tennis player than you currently. Can you speak a bit about it?"

Djokovic responded by referencing his work on the tennis court, a mention that is omitted in the social media post, but which we highlight here in bold..."

I'm not a fan of Novak Djokovic, but part of the criticism is really unfair.

He has also been very supportive of Osaka and others, and has been a player advocate.

Mixed doubles players ALWAYS know that if they team up with a top singles player, they may have to default. ND's partner was not a top singles or doubles player, and it is very unlikely that they would have won a medal had she been paired with any other Serbian male player on the team. He was clearly exhausted by the end of the week, and may have been injured, as he claimed.

I agree that there is no excuse for racquet tossing or any other unsportsmanlike conduct.
