    I think she would be the first to congratulate her...... She is no racist!!! She is just a very religious person who disagrees with same sex marriage. I agree with her on that part only.

    In 1990, Court said Navratilova was a poor role model for young tennis players because of her homosexuality.

    Navratilova said she had forgiven Court for those comments, but had only just been made aware of remarks the Australian made about South Africa's apartheid regime.

    In 1970, Court said: "South Africa has the racial situation rather better organised than anyone else, certainly much better than the United States."
