Former tennis star Martina Navratilova has been diagnosed with Stage 1 breast cancer and Stage 1 throat cancer, she announced in a statement on Monday.
The 66-year-old shared that she is hopeful during this time despite the diagnosis. She plans to start treatment this month.
“This double whammy is serious but still fixable, and I’m hoping for a favorable outcome,” Navratilova said, via WTA. “It’s going to stink for a while, but I’ll fight with all have I got.”
