Andy Murray might be worldly recognised as one of the glummest sporting personalities across the globe, but he’s well and truly obliterated Donald Trump over Twitter yesterday.
Before we get to Andy Murray‘s match-point (sorry, I hated making that pun too), this story begins earlier on, when Donald Trump tweeted, like he always does, about how he rejected a non-official offer to become Time Magazine’s Person of the Year, 2017, reports.
Don’t believe me? Well he tweeted it:
In the tweet, he wrote:
Time Magazine called to say that I was PROBABLY going to be named “Man (Person) of the Year,” like last year, but I would have to agree to an interview and a major photo shoot. I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!
But then rather quickly Time popped up outta nowhere claiming Trump wasn’t telling the truth and he was ‘incorrect about how we choose’ the winner.
But then who comes, serving from the baseline, straight out of nowhere?
Andy Murray, who wrote a hilarious parody tweet claiming he hadn’t won Sports Personality of the Year, but was ‘PROBABLY’ gonna be awarded it and had decided to pass.
He wrote:
BBC just called to say I was PROBABLY going to be named sports personality of the year but I would have to agree to an interview and a major photo shoot.
I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!
As you can probably imagine the tweet went massively viral, with 205,000 likes and almost 50,000 retweets.
Surely Andy Murray deserves Sports Personality Of The Year for this tweet alone.
