Martina Navratilova Unloads on Trans Athlete Valentina Petrillo

In a shocking display of common sense, tennis legend Martina Navratilova has called out Italian sprinter Valentina Petrillo as a "pathetic cheater" for competing in the women's category at the upcoming Paralympics. Petrillo, 50, is set to become the first transgender woman to compete in the Paralympics, despite being born a male.

Navratilova, an outspoken champion of protecting women's rights in sports, took to social media to express her outrage over Petrillo's participation in the women's events. "Petrillo is a pathetic cheater," she wrote on X. In another post, Navratilova lamented the fact that yet another male athlete was "stealing women's trophies" in the Paralympics. "Yet another male stealing women’s trophies. In [the] Paralympics, no less. Sickening."

Petrillo, who won 11 national titles in the men's T12 category between 2015 and 2018 before transitioning, claims that she has a right to compete as a woman despite her biological advantages. "I began transitioning in 2019 and in 2020 I realized my dream, which was to race in the female category, to do the sport that I had always loved doing," Petrillo told The Associated Press. "I got to 50 before it came true … we all have the right to a second choice of life, a second chance."

However, Petrillo's own words reveal some doubts about her place in women's sports. When asked if she thought she would be stronger than biological women due to her male physiology, Petrillo hesitated. "I have asked myself ‘But Valentina, if you were a biological woman and you saw a Valentina racing with you, what would you think?’ And I responded to myself that I would also have some doubts," she said.

Dear Friend,

Did you know that more millionaires were created in the Great Depression than ever before?

Or that the ultra-rich actually grew richer during the Pandemic, adding $1.7 trillion to their collective wealth?

It’s true. 

And the same thing is about to happen again.

Because when you know a few billionaire secrets to growing wealth, you never have to worry about money again.

Just take a look at the wealthiest family in American history. 

Today Elon Musk is the richest person in the world, or close to it depending on Tesla’s stock price.

Yet amazingly John D. Rockefeller was actually about 2 times richer...

It’s true, Bloomberg recently reported that as a share of GDP, Rockefeller was worth ~$343 billion in today’s dollars.

Other families from his era with similar fortunes lost their money and many of their mansions have been bulldozed.

But the Rockefeller family is still worth billions more than 6 generations later, with 150+ family members still supported by the trust…

And they’re not just trust-fund babies — they're productive members of society, starting multiple businesses and donating around $50 million dollars a year to charity while the fortune continues to grow. 

While researching the wealthiest families in America, our company, Wealthfactory, stumbled upon one of the Rockefellers’ favorite financial strategies -- which acts like a wealth-building engine that automatically grows the family fortune, year after year.

Every time a new Rockefeller is born, they get a new special account where…

Their money grows tax-free year after year with no down years (tax benefits were so good, in fact, that the IRS had to get involved and lightly tap the brakes).

It grows 400%-800% faster than most Americans’ savings accounts.

The money is protected from lawsuits and financial predators.

And the account acts as an “opportunity fund” when it’s time to pay for college, buy a house, invest or even to start a business.

The best part is you don’t have to be a billionaire or millionaire to use this system.

In our book What Would Billionaires Do? (get your copy here) we shows how you can do exactly what the wealthiest family in U.S. history does to grow and preserve their wealth.

What Would Billionaires Do? also shows you:

• The secret to continual growth (that won’t fall when the markets do)

• How to boost your savings rate up to 400% - 800% and safeguard your wealth (even in a near 0% interest rate world)

• Plus how to pass tax-free wealth onto the next generation

You can get this and MUCH more from our Complete Billionaire Financial System, including our book:
