New Year Wishes: From Ronaldo to Sania Mirza, sports stars ring in 2021, mindful of 2020

Sports personalities across the globe greeted their fans on the first day of the new year on Friday acknowledging that the year 2020 was a difficult one for humanity. Football legend Cristiano Ronaldo extending his wishes to his fans said "may 2021 be a year to always remember for the best reasons." 'A new beginning, a fresh start' "2020 was not an easy year, there's no doubt about it. No one can be indifferent to the pain and suffering that COVID-19 brought upon the world. But now it's time to bounce back and show that, together, we can make a difference. Because no matter how hard is the fall, what really defines us is the way we get back on our feet and how fast we are ready to face new obstacles," Ronaldo said in an Instagram post while sharing a picture with his girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez, and kids. "So let's try to turn 2021 into a turning point, a new beginning, a fresh start. Because all us - and I do mean all of us - can still become better versions of ourselves. And if we do it all together, that might actually be the secret to turn things around for the better. Happy New Year! And may 2021 be a year to always remember for the best reasons!" he added.
