‘That’s Kinda Scary’- Chris Evert Gets Spooked by the Optical Illusion Shared by Martina Navratilova

Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova share an iconic rivalry, but more than that, they have always been close friends. Be it on the court or off of it, the players have backed each other and have shared joyous times as well. Recently, Martina Navratilova shared an image that has an optical illusion on Twitter.

Evert, being an inquisitive friend, tried it too. However, it was not as fun as it was for Navratilova.

Chris Evert frightened by Navratilova’s fun tweet

Evert quoted Navratilova’s original tweet, which had a negative copy of a woman’s picture. It was an optical illusion trick that thrilled Navratilova, who tweeted ‘Hah’ while quoting the tweet. However, for Evert, it was not a fun one, as she admitted ‘Ok, that’s kinda scary…’ One could see the image of the woman after following the directions, which definitely was a bit spooky.

This shows the opposite nature of the two rivals and friends who showed the same distinction on the court during their playing days as well. Nevertheless, they always supported each other. When Evert was diagnosed with 1C Ovarian cancer, Navratilova sent her wishes and supported her fight for recovery. Evert successfully recovered after completing all rounds of chemotherapy.
