Martina Navratilova on why she never bought a Tesla

The Czech-American player has been extremely vocal about her dislike for both Tesla and the company’s founder. Taking up issues from the technical glitches in the car to the mistreatment of the Tesla employees, the tennis legend has, time and again, pointed out the flaws in Musk’s management of his companies. So, when she quote-tweeted a message on how Tesla owners are now ashamed because of their vehicles, she made her stance clear.

When a user mentioned that there are better alternatives in the automobile market, Navratilova replied, “I am good on that front:). Something always pulled me back from getting a Tesla. Moral of the story- trust your GUT!:)”

So, apparently, in the end, it is her gut feeling that kept her away from making a shift to Tesla. Her dislike for the vehicle as well as the CEO is on par with her dislike toward the former US President Donald Trump. And the legendary tennis player is pretty passionate about expressing her views about both of them.

Navratilova makes a switch to an alternative to Twitter

When Twitter got a new CEO, many were happy, but there were also people who did not like where the platform was going. And that included the former Czech-American tennis player.
