Martina Navratilova Reflects on Choosing to Defect From Home Country | Undeniable with Joe Buck

Czech tennis star Martina Navratilova recalls the exact moment she knew she needed to defect from her home country of Czechoslovakia.
In 1975 at the age of 18, Navratilova asked the United States for political asylum and was granted temporary residence. She discusses her motives for choosing to defect, her plan of execution, and the choice words the Czech Republic had to say once the news broke.

Good to hear Martina explain her decision to defect and why she choose that route.

Martina is, and was, One of the Best. Her, Chris, Steffi, Venus, and Serena. Great Champions All. And I'm a Republican, just so some of you know.

Sorry Joe. You have a long way to go before you're on the level as Bob Costas. I Hate Bob's politics. But, he does his homework.
