41-Year-Old Serena Williams Dragged Into Latest Twitter Wildfire As Ex-Coach Taunts Elon Musk With a Serious ‘Legacy’ Question

The Twitter CEO, Elon Musk, has taken away the Twitter blue tick verification from well-known personalities across the world, including renowned names in the sports realm. Now his action has caused chaos. However, he has only granted LeBron James, the NBA legend, complimentary Twitter verification, upsetting the other sports stars.

Not to be surprised, after witnessing the free Twitter verifications, the Australian tennis coach, Rennae Stubbs, has a query for the company’s CEO. It was about Serena Williams‘ exclusion from the list of legends who received the complimentary blue tick verification.

Serena Williams’ ex-coach Rennae Stubbs questions Twitter CEO

Twitter has caused turmoil for all of its users over the past two days, including celebrities from numerous fields. Recently, Elon Musk removed the blue tech privilege and made it a subscription policy for every Twitter user. However, the Twitter CEO made an exception for the Lakers’ legend, which did not sit well with Rennae Stubbs. She brought up the subject of why Williams was not accorded such privilege, considering her contributions to the sports realm.

The 41-year-old tennis player’s ex-coach took to Twitter to pose a direct question to the Twitter CEO. She posted a picture of the 23-time Grand Slam Champions Twitter profile without the blue tick. Along with that, she wrote, “I guess even @serenawilliams let the blue tick go! @elonmusk LeBron roasted you so u gave him one but Serena not legacy enough for u?” 

Not only did she raise a concern about why the ‘Queen of the Court’ is excluded from this privilege. She also mocked the Twitter CEO by questioning what led him to make an exception for the American basketball star.
