67-YO Martina Navratilova Drinking From the Stanley Cup at Wife Julia Lemigova’s Birthday Leaves Fans Starstruck

The drink of champions! After almost 30 years and four tedious attempts, the Florida Panthers recently won their first Stanley Cup Finals by defeating the Edmonton Oilers by 2-1 in Game 7. Aleksander Barkov became the first Finnish-born captain to lift this prestigious title in its 132-year history. What a moment for the Panthers! And Guess what? They even got a gift after emphatic triumph. They visited a restaurant to celebrate their victory after the match and tennis legend Martina Navratilova was also present in the same restaurant with her partner, Julia Lemigova. Navratilova was also spotted performing a “cool act” to celebrate their victory altogether!

The Stanley Cup is not just a prestigious trophy, it’s also a symbol of tradition and celebrations. There are many traditions associated with this historic trophy. One of the oldest is- the winning team drinks champagne from the top bowl after their victories. This tradition was started by the 1896 Winnipeg Victorias.

The Cup is often filled with champagne, but beer holds a special place in this tradition. Starting from players, coaches, staff, fans and sometimes even special guests like Martina Navratilova are also offered the opportunity to drink their favorite brew from this historic trophy. This has now become an integral part of this Cup and it’s a true symbol of how to celebrate the hockey culture. Representing the camaraderie and bond between teammates along with shared love for the game, perhaps couldn’t have had a better mode of expression, isn’t it?

Martina Navratilova was quite excited after getting this opportunity to celebrate this iconic moment with the Florida Panthers. She had a sip of that beer from the cup and later on, she shared that moment on her Twitter account. She wrote, “And then I got to do this:) Beer was never so sweet as this sip:).” How did the fans react to this after seeing this tennis legend enjoying every drop of her sip?

“Still the Queen” – Fans go crazy after seeing Martina Navratilova’s “cool” act

Tennis legend, Martina Navratilova and the Russian former model Julia Lemigova have been head over heels in love for quite some time now. However, their love for each other is still the same as on the first day. They love to celebrate their special moments in life by spending time together. This time it was Julia Lemigova’s 51st birthday, and guess what they got the chance to hang out with Aleksander Barkov and co. on the same day. Seeing these cheerful moments of celebration a fan wrote, “Congrats, champ. Must have been a great evening.”

The 67-year-old tennis icon has had to go through a lot of restrictions due to her health concerns. Once she revealed, “There is one downside to the diet. I miss the beer.” However, she did manage to find a way to get “gluten-free beer“ later on, but these moments are an example of how badly she misses what probably was once her favorite drink. Seeing her enjoy her drink a fan said, “Wait, you got to drink out of the Cup? So jealous!”

Martina Navratilova is one of the coolest people in the tennis world! Maria Sakkari knows that, and we all know that too, right? During an interview in March this year, Sakkari described her as a “very cool” and “amazing” person. Recently, another fan felt the same after seeing her “cool” acts. The fan wrote, “@Martina, you just get cooler and cooler! Beyond hero status.”

Another fan exclaimed the same, “You have always been so damn cool 🙂“. She has not been a role model with her achievements on the court but Martina Navratilova has always tried to be a bit different from all others. Her incredible personality often gets reflected through these moments.

She dominated the tennis world in the late 1970s and the ’80s and is widely considered one of the greatest tennis players of all time. Martina Navratilova has won 18 major singles in her career. She has a record of clinching the most major titles (59) in the Open Era, combining all the events. Perhaps this is why she is often hailed as the “Queen“. A fan expressed her love for the tennis legend by saying, “Omg you are still the Queen !!! Love you Martina.” Share your thoughts on this “cool” act of Martina Navratilova.
