Pickleball is one of the fastest-growing sports in America and become the favorite sport in the country despite being around since the 1960s. It has become a neighborhood game since it has been adopted as the official state sport in Washington. It has also gathered the attention of famous sports legends investing in the expansion plan of the Pickleball Premier League.
Navratilova gave a sarcastic angle to her opinion on the Pickleball game stating the biggest reason for its popularity in the country. She went on to state her ‘not so humble opinion‘ where she claimed that the sport can make you feel successful and offers you no time to suck over the loss.
She shared her opinion on her social media account. She said that “The Biggest reason Pickleball is so popular, IMNSHO, is that you can be decent and feel successful rather quickly. Unlike tennis, which- in the words of my friend Joel Drucker- takes a long time not to suck“.
Martina Navratilova has always been vocal with her political and social opinions in various instances
The 18-time Grand Slam champion had hilariously mocked the comments regarding voting for a straight democrat in the upcoming US elections. She jokingly pledged to cast her vote for a gay democrat in the elections. This was not the first time she spoke in favor of LGBT individuals.
She had also rebuked the newly former abortion laws in the country. She revealed that over one million pregnancies in the US end in miscarriages and questioned how the Republicans are going to investigate every single one of them. She has always been associated with charities that fight for equal gay rights and as well as support underprivileged children.
