‘That’s One Ugly Forehand’- US Presidential Candidate Faces Martina Navratilova’s Wrath as the Tennis Legend’s Critique Takes a Political Turn

Martina Navratilova, an icon whose tennis prowess and unbridled passion once left the world in awe, has consistently stood out for her candid and upfront approach to sharing her opinions. As her remarkable on-court career evolved into a platform for advocating her beliefs, Navratilova’s fervent support for democratic values became a hallmark of her post-retirement persona. The American sensation, known for pushing boundaries both on and off the court, has never shied away from using her voice to champion her ideals.

In a recent instance, the former tennis star took to the digital arena of Twitter to lend her perspective on Vivek Ramaswamy, a prominent figure who grabbed attention by sharing an unconventional tennis photo: himself engaged in the sport shirtless. Navratilova’s commentary on this episode once again demonstrates her willingness to share her thoughts unabashedly, keeping the public discourse alive and dynamic.

Martina Navratilova mocks US presidential candidate

In a recent set of events, Martina Navratilova took to Twitter to express her frustration over the upcoming candidate for the US presidential elections. While Martina has been an avid Democrat supporter, Vivek comes from a Republican background. Thus, this becomes one of the main reasons for the conflict between the two.

Reacting to the video shared on Twitter, a user expressed his dissatisfaction saying that his wife and children have also been tennis players and he as a supporter has been to multiple matches but nowhere he has seen anyone playing shirtless.

Responding to this, Martina Navratilova said that the forehand of Vivek is very ‘ugly‘. She also mentioned the small steps that Vivek took to hit his shots which, according to Martina, took him nowhere. She also went ahead to say that maybe his small steps could be an analogy to the politics that he does beyond sports.

“That’s one ugly forehand. I especially like the small stutter steps that take Vivek nowhere.:), I wonder if that could be an analogy for his politics,” said Navratilova in the tweet.

Thus, Martina’s words point straight at Vivek who aims to hit the next US Presidential election after Joe Biden’s tenure comes to an end. However, it will be exciting to see if he really is a worthy candidate or not. On the other hand, Martina Navratilova’s comment on him is hit straight from a political point of view as she would not want him in power at the next tenure.

Navratilova’s socio-political focus post-retirement

Talking about Martina, she was the one who was very happy with the US mid-term elections as she displayed her satisfaction over the results that came out in support of the Democrats in the year 2022. She mentioned that in the atmosphere in which she grew up, it was almost impossible for her to cast her voice against any crime that happened in Czechoslovakia. However, not getting the same thing here in America is what pleased her.

Thus, after her retirement from the sport, she has taken up politics to help the people and raise her voice against any injustices that are done. From being a professional player to her journey as a political supporter, Martina Navratilova has covered a long journey and displayed that age does not matter if one has the courage to pursue his dreams.
