"Where did you hear the keeping my citizenship? Is this another fake take being spread?" – Bewildered Martina Navratilova involved in argument with Novak Djokovic fan

Novak Djokovic fans have displayed immense hostility towards Martina Navratilova in recent days. The Czech-American icon has found herself in hot waters after speaking out against Djokovic's Covid-19 vaccination stance, and on Monday was left confounded after a fan stated that her US citizenship was on the line.Martina Navratilova has not taken well to the harsh criticism from a few fans and users on Twitter, and has proceeded to block them. But one fan caught the attention of the 18-time Major winner and a lengthy argument ensued after she congratulated a fellow fan for getting blocked.Nandita Das@nanditadaniel@pavyg @BenRothenberg @Martina @jon_wertheim @rennaestubbs Congratulations8@pavyg @BenRothenberg @Martina @jon_wertheim @rennaestubbs CongratulationsMartina Navratilova@Martina@nanditadaniel @pavyg @BenRothenberg @jon_wertheim @rennaestubbs Really?@nanditadaniel @pavyg @BenRothenberg @jon_wertheim @rennaestubbs Really?The fan further confronted the American on being 'anti-Djokovic', claiming that the 21-time Slam champion had been mistreated throughout his ordeal in Australia. Navratilova responded by asking to keep things civil despite the disagreement.Nandita Das@nanditadaniel@Martina @pavyg @BenRothenberg @jon_wertheim @rennaestubbs I am a fan of your game, but why are you anti- Djokovic? He's the best and he deserves our support. The way he was treated in Australia is a shame. That's not how the best player in the world should be treated. I believe we should always stand up for what's right.202@Martina @pavyg @BenRothenberg @jon_wertheim @rennaestubbs I am a fan of your game, but why are you anti- Djokovic?

To this, Martina Navratilova clarified that it wasn’t the sport authorities that were in the driver’s seat but the governments of the respective countries.Nandita Das@nanditadaniel@Martina @pavyg @BenRothenberg @jon_wertheim @rennaestubbs Sad. You're one of the legendary players and a champion and we respect you for that. And to us, fans of the game, with everything that's happening in Tennis world, it appears that the establishment (the people who run tennis) are anti-Djokovic. Anyway, that's our understanding.5@Martina @pavyg @BenRothenberg @jon_wertheim @rennaestubbs Sad. You're one of the legendary players and a champion and we respect you for that.

Not sure what else is there to complain about?7@nanditadaniel @pavyg @BenRothenberg @jon_wertheim @rennaestubbs You do realize it’s not tennis establishment that kept Novak from playing in Australia or the upcoming US open but that those are government rules? Not sure what else is there to complain about?The fan then went on to suggest that the American was obliged to speak in favor of the country that granted her citizenship. Navratilova was infuriated by this narrative.&quot;Where did you hear the keeping my citizenship? Is this another fake take being spread? There is no way to revoke someone’s citizenship unless they lied on their application. I didn’t.

The latest to broadcast their disapproval was Vesna Pesic, a politician and sociologist from his own country.Pesic clarified that she was an ardent fan of Djokovic's but had conflicting views about his unvaccinated status.&quot;As a well-known Djokovic fan, I wonder when he will protect his body from the vaccine at the age of 35? And those millions who received the vaccine and their bodies are dead cold, he really doesn't care. When you infect the brain, it's not very good. It seems that those pyramids in Bosnia did not help him,&quot; Pesic wrote.She also attributed Djokovic's take on the issue to his level of education.&quot;He's not stupid, he's uneducated, because he's only been hitting the ball since he was 6 years old. It's not a sin, he's achieved success. I have no chance to fight with them either,&quot; Pesic tweeted.
