Tennis is extremely popular, and it is recreationally played by many to stay fit, even by celebrities. Once ‘Pop Princess’ Britney Spears was spotted playing the sport with her husband Sam Asghari.

Spears was seen in a video hitting some uncanny shots, but surprisingly, she was playing on a sunny day on the hard courts with no shoes. The video, which was shared on Twitter, got several reactions from fans. However, what caught the eye of many was Chris Evert’s reaction to the video.

Chris Evert made a funny remark about Britney Spears 

The 18-time singles major champion responded with a couple of wink emojis to the video clip showing Britney Spears playing tennis without shoes. Evert was impressed by Spears’ barefoot tennis skills when she made a hilarious request to shoe sponsors. She tweeted, “Will somebody get her a tennis shoe deal?”

Britney Spears, on the other hand, tweeted, “Not professional, but it’s really fun!” about her tennis game with a few exclamation points. Spears also enjoyed a game of tennis with her husband when they came out of self-quarantine in 2020. They played a number of tennis matches during that time.
