Further, a fan reacted to the video by saying, “Fall on the ball!….fall on the ball!” Later, the 65-year-old replied, “Nope- they all wanted the glory of scooping it up on the bounce and running it in for a touchdown… but in any case they moved the ball the right direction.”

Navratilova refrains from calling Serena Williams a GOAT

There has always been a debate about Serena Williams being the greatest tennis player of all time. As the legendary tennis player retired, the issue was fresh again. Notably, the 40-year-old ended her career with 23 Grand Slam titles to her name. Speaking about it as Serena played her last match, Navratilova skipped calling Serena the GOAT.

Instead of that, the 65-year-old explained how it’s not fair to compare players from different generations. Speaking further, she addressed Serena as the greatest in the last two generations. However, the 18-time Grand Slam champion believes the importance of Majors has increased now.

As in their time, the year-ending championship used to be a big thing, and she won it eight times. Further, she also spoke about the irregularity of the scheduling of events like the Australian Open and the French Open in their time.

Navratilova also tried to explain her stand by mentioning the former tennis star Steffi Graf, who ended with 22 Grand Slam titles. It was before Serena achieved 23 and she didn’t call her the GOAT either. What do you think about the GOAT debate? Let us know in the comments.
