Harrison Butker says Serena Williams' jab at him was an 'opportunity to disinvite' those who disagree with her
SUMMARY
Harrison Butker responded to Serena Williams' criticism at the ESPY Awards by stating, "Sports are supposed to be the great unifier. And at an event dedicated to celebrating a diverse group of men and women who have accomplished great feats, [Serena Williams] used it as an opportunity to disinvite those with whom she disagrees with from supporting fellow athletes." Butker, acknowledging Williams' role as host, added, "I thought Mrs. Williams was a great host and applaud her for using her platform to express her beliefs on a variety of topics." He remained steadfast in his stance, saying, "It's not people, but Jesus Christ who I'm trying to please."
