Martina Navratilova has been diagnosed with two forms of cancer, in her throat and breast tissue. Fortunately, this horrible news comes with a ray of hope, as the tennis legend claims that her prognosis is good and that her treatment is due to start next week in New York City.
The 66-year-old Navratilova first discovered a lump in her neck during the WTA Finals in Fort Worth in November 2022. When she had it checked, the biopsy results pointed to an early-stage throat cancer. As she was undergoing tests on her throat, the unrelated stage-one breast cancer was discovered.
