Unfortunately, she delivered some terrible news. Both throat and breast cancers have been diagnosed.

The tennis player discovered a growth on her neck two months ago, along with an enlarged lymph node. A biopsy revealed that it was early-stage throat cancer.

During the course of her throat examinations, doctors discovered breast cancer, which is unrelated.

Navratilova, 66, stated, “This double whammy is serious but still fixable, and I’m hoping for a positive outcome.” It’ll stink for a while, but I’ll fight with everything I’ve got.”

She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010 and had the malignant cells removed. She was also given radiation treatment.

Navratilova is likely to begin treatment after her new cancer diagnosis within the next month.
