"Women are overlooked all the time" - Martina Navratilova responds to fan accusing her of criticizing only Novak Djokovic

Martina Navratilova has criticized Novak Djokovic on multiple occasions for his refusal to be vaccinated against COVID-19.This has led to several of Djokovic's fans accusing the 18-time Grand Slam singles champion of not respecting his freedom to choose what he does or doesn't put inside his body.One fan, in particular, accused Navratilova of criticizing only Djokovic while overlooking other errors being made by the media.The user referenced an instance in which media outlets labeled 19-year-old Carlos Alcaraz as the youngest-ever World No. 1, conveniently ignoring the fact that Martina Hingis and Monica Seles attained the feat when they were younger.The user branded Martina Navratilova a hypocrite for not talking about this and even said Martina Hingis' achievement might have bothered her.&quot;Consistent hypocrisy of @Martina pinning Novak for every single move has to be highlighted. She doesn't mind blatant MSM manipulation of portraying Alcaraz being youngest tennis No. 1 ever. No men or women, but tennis No. 1. Perhaps Martina Hingis achievement at 16 is bothersome,&quot; the user's tweet read.lixD 💜@lidijadConsistent hypocrisy of @Martina pinning Novak for every single move has to be highlighted.She doesn't mind blatant MSM manipulation of portraying Alcaraz being youngest tennis no1 ever.
