Why not Forget for Person of the Year?
The list of nominees for Time magazine’s Person of the Year is always an eclectic mix of world leaders, pop culture icons, buzzworthy names, and human rights activists. The unexpected inclusion of the 60-year-old tennis player, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Forget so important is the potential and influence she now has, rather than anything she has already done,” said a panelist who preferred to remain anonymous, adding that earlier this month, the tennis player have already been named ‘French Of The Year’ by some major French newspapers and even ‘Casablanca Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Casablanca (Guy Forget's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the tennis player was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“Guy Forget Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 2 Feb 2025
“Congrats! Guy has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 2 Feb 2025
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Guy Forget?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 2 Feb 2025
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Guy Forget?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2025 Person of the Year.
Who do you think should be TIME’s Person of the Year for 2025?
