The BBC is standing by John Inverdale despite his string of awkward moments at the Olympics, explaining a comment he made to Andy Murray that was branded as sexist as “a simple error”. When Inverdale asserted that Murray was the first person to win two Olympic tennis gold medals, Murray quickly put him in his place. Inverdale remarked, “That’s an incredible accomplishment.” Murray said, “I believe Venus and Serena [Williams] have won approximately four apiece.” England vs.

The Bbc’ s John Inverdale Gives a Pitchside Commentary
United Kingdom vs. France – 15 August 2015 Despite John Inverdale’s claim that he was the first person to win two tennis gold medals, Andy Murray slams it. Inverdale’s apparent sexism was highly hailed on social media by the Scot, who earlier this year had become a feminist after experiencing firsthand the “criticism and prejudice” his former coach Amelie Mauresmo had faced.

Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon was one of the champion’s admirers, tweeting: “It was a simple error,” a BBC Sports spokesman said of Inverdale’s Olympic duties following the blunder. Sir Steve Redgrave, the five-time Olympic medalist who co-hosted coverage of the rowing with Inverdale, has had a string of difficult moments at the Rio Olympics, with Inverdale getting on Redgrave’s nerves. To be fair, Redgrave’s stature and weight were no match for Inverdale’s, but he will have to be on his best behavior in front of the camera for the BBC’s coverage.
