Navratilova hopes for Kasatkina safety after black-listing: "This is not good"

Martina Navratilova is worried about the safety of Daria Kasatkina after a politican attempted to brand her a foreign agent in the state Duma.

Daria Kasatkina has been receiving a lot of criticism after going public with her sexuality as well as having a strong opinion on many matters including the war in Ukraine. While her tennis contribution was recognized with a medal in Russia, a politician in the country attempted to brand her as a foreign agent which could have consequences for her.

Martina Navratilova reacted to it on Twitter expressing worry for her safety and wish for her to stay safe:

"This is not good. I hope Daria is safe and will be able to travel as she pleases… yikes though!!!!"
