Martina Navratilova
Martina Navratilova recently called for a name-change of the Margaret Court Arena at Melbourne Park after the Australian great's boycott of airliner Qantas over its same-sex marriage stance.
Court, now a church pastor, complained on Thursday that the carrier's support of marriage equality "leaves me no option but to use other airlines where possible for my extensive traveling."
Margaret
The 24-time Grand Slam champion's comments sparked criticism, including from fellow legend Navratilova.
"Maybe it's time to change the name of the Margaret Court Arena then... and I guess Margaret will be taking the boat on her next trip?:)", she tweeted. She added in another tweet: "thank you Qantas for your support. And Margaret - you have gone too far. Shame on you... #wrongsideofhistory."
