Tennis legend Chris Evert confirms chemotherapy update after ovarian cancer diagnosis

Tennis icon Chris Evert has released a promising update on her chemotherapy as she battled stage 1 ovarian cancer. The American announced the completion of her treatment and took to social media to share the news.

She posted a snap beaming with pride as she rang the hospital bell to signal the end of her chemo. "Right before the ringing of the bell signifying the end of my 6 chemos," the 18-time grand slam champ penned.

The 67-year-old also uploaded a video thanking her doctors and received her diploma before a positive and encouraging message was read out. “Thank you so much, you guys were great, good luck to everybody,'' Evert said before adding with a chuckle: “I hope we don’t see you again!”, as she prepared to leave the hospital in Cleveland, Ohio.
