Former American tennis player Andy Roddick mocked Donald Trump for a huge gaffed regarding the Super Bowl
Former American tennis star Andy Roddick took to Twitter and aimed a dig at US President Donald Trump after the latter made a mistake with a post regarding Super Bowl side Kansas City Chiefs.
Roddick, a former World No. 1, shared a sarcastic tweet mocking his country’s president, who had earlier posted a tweet congratulating the Kansas City side, who recorded a remarkable comeback to win the Super Bowl LIV.
In the tweet, Trump had praised Kansas City Chiefs for their victory but what caught the attention of Roddick and sports fans around the world was what came later in the tweet.
Trump’s tweet read: “Congratulations to the Kansas City Chiefs on a great game and fantastic comeback, under immense pressure. You represented the great State of Kansas and, in fact, the entire USA, so very well. Our Country is PROUD OF YOU!”

The US President made a fool of himself by appreciating the Chiefs, who in real belong to the State of Missouri rather than Kansas.
Many including Roddick were left bemused by Trump’s ignorance which led to him and others reacting to the president’s mistake by posting their opinions on the social media handle.
