Martina Navratilova has been outspoken about being against allowing transwomen to compete with cis women in sports and she once again engaged in the topic.
Navratilova has been quite outspoken about her belief that trans women have a competitive advantage over cis women by virtue of having been born into a biologically male body before transitioning. There is enough scientific data to back up her claims and she's not the only woman speaking out against this polarizing topic.
She's also garnered a lot of criticism for her outspoken views on the topic though she doesn't care much for it. In a recent post on social media, she expressed anger over an article that called women's swimming transphobic after many complained of a recent instance where a trans woman won a competition comfortably ahead of the opposition.
Navratilova wrote on twitter:

- It's always a sad note when anyone SELLS OUT on their hobby or sport. Doing so with these murderous, secretive, Saudi oppressors of women makes it embarrassing. Money cannot instill 'passion' in potential fans; money cannot force players to 'enjoy' their participation simply because hey are being paid millions upon showing up; money cannot gaurantee a future. What money can (and does) do is distract otherwise intensely focused athletes, money can entice people to go against their better judgement for a buck; money can potentially harm any given sport and has done so -- or at least caused concern for its future.
