Loredana Berte, ex-wife of tennis legend Bjorn Borg, has drawn the attention of tennis fans following her recent comments regarding the Eurovision singing contest.
The Italian singer, who was married to Borg from 1989-1993, stated she would like to win the Sanremo Music Festival and subsequently go to the Eurovision contest. The song competition will be held in Malmo, Sweden, where Borg often resides and Berte added she would also like to travel there in order to annoy her ex-husband.
Tennis fans rally in support behind Berte
"Vote for me, I want to win, I would like to go to Eurovision because it is held in Malmo so that I can annoy my ex-husband. And I get a nice revenge," Berte said.
The thought of Berte annoying her ex-husband must have appealed to some tennis fans, as several campaigned to have the singer sent to Eurovision for the sole purpose of irking the retired Swedish tennis star.
"As a Swede who always was more of a Bertè fan than Borg fan I think they should send her just to piss Björn off," wrote one fan on Twitter.
"Please send this woman to Sweden, Italy, you have one job," said another fan.
"She already won Sanremo just with this sentence," stated another fan.
"It would be so funny if she won just for this reason," opined another fan.
"Unexpected Eurovision/tennis crossover," said another fan.
