Overview

• During Sky Sports’ US Open coverage, Laura Robson said she couldn’t think of anything worse than a public proposal before Martina Navratilova revealed she had proposed at the tournament.
• Navratilova told the panel she proposed to Julia Lemigova on Arthur Ashe Stadium in 2014, calling back to the moment as the studio burst into laughter.
• Robson covered her face, joked she would show herself out, and Tim Henman playfully kept the tease going as the clip went viral.
• Navratilova recounted proposing during a changeover on the big screen, getting down on one knee and urging a response because her knees were hurting before Lemigova said yes.
• A spectator proposal during Aryna Sabalenka’s win over Leylah Fernandez set off the discussion, with Sabalenka calling it a sweet moment while noting it would not be her preferred proposal style.
