"Can't make this up" - Martina Navratilova furious as Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian-backed bar celebrates transgender athlete's achievements

Martina Navratilova was left furious as Serena William's husband Alexis Ohanian's latest investment, claiming to promote only women's sports, celebrated a biological male athlete's win in a women's championship. The Reddit co-founder invested in the company earlier this year.

Ohanian is a well-known advocate for women's sports and has never shied away from investing in various ventures that he feels will bring more attention to them. His recent investment, The Sports Bra, is a bar that only televises women's sports in a bid to popularize it.

Jenny Nguyen, a professional chef and former college basketball player, founded it two years ago. Williams' husband's Ohanian 776 Foundation invested an undisclosed amount in The Sports Bra earlier this year.

However, in a strange turn of events, The Sports Bra's Instagram page recently congratulated a biological male athlete on his dominance at the girl's Oregon State Track championships. The trans girl, Aayden, apparently received a lot of backlash from people due to her participation in a girl's championship.

Aayden's mother reached out to the bar via Instagram to provide her daughter with a comfortable space, which led them to post the congratulatory message on their page.

Martina Navratilova, a huge critic of the inclusion of biological males in women's sports, took to X (formerly Twitter) to express her anger at the situation that had left her astounded.
