Tennis Australia finally folded and took action against those two entitled agitators. They have been held accountable for their disrespect toward a legend. We won this fight and now we keep a close watch to ensure this never happens again.

Margaret Court earned her recognition today and deserved acknowledgement from Tennis Auatralia. What McEnroe & Navratilova did today, is just appalling. We believe they should be removed not only from the rest of the Aust Open Tournament, but told to go back home. As Australians, we are proud of our Sports people and believe this kind of behaviour towards an exceptional one like Margaret, should be subjected to some form discipline.

We just hit 250 signatures and the message is clear. Tennis Australia needs to stop hiding and discipline McEnroe and Navratilova for their blatant disrespect toward a legend.

Disgusting and they aren’t even Australian citizens. How dare they try and tell us to rename our sporting places. Margaret Court is allowed to have her view. She was our top females tennis star.

Grubs ....dreadful commentators with dribble comments and ridiculous questions. Childish play by them and Tennis Australia are the losers for having them. They bring the game into disrepute.

You are guests/visitors to our country. How dare you condemn an Australian legend because of your personal feelings, whether I agree or not with Margaret Court, irrelevant, I will always support her right to her opinion, and so should we all.

As guests in this country, they had a job to do, and this has overstepped the mark and brought disrepute to the Australian Open. They should apologise to Margaret, Evonne and everyone who has seen this inappropriate display. Consequences!

How dare they! What gives them the right to be so obnoxious and demand the arena be renamed??? Why do they think they can protest about what is happening in Australia? I hope they never returm to our shores!

Mc Enroe’s behaviour during his tennis career, ranging from Cocaine habit to childish on court tantrums and now his vile campaign against Margaret Court, who happens to be a committed Christian, places him in the ‘not suitable’ for commentary in Australia

Disgraceful behaviour. Keep politics, religion and any other non sporting comments to another forum.

Margaret Court is the greatest female tennis player of all time and certainly deserves recognition especially from her own Country.
