Navratilova slams USTA for inclusion of transgenders: “Women’s tennis is not for failed male athletes”

Tennis legend Martina Navratilova is the loudest advocate of keeping male-to-females out of women’s sports. Engaging in yet another heated conversation on X (former Twitter), the nine-time Wimbledon champion called out the United States Tennis Association for their transgender inclusion policy.

The tennis legend, who also fights for keeping people born as males out of women’s restrooms, insists that having trans women compete against biological women is not fair:

Come on USTA – women’s tennis is not for failed male athletes – whatever age. This is not right and it is not fair.
