Martina Navratilova Says She's 'Cancer-free', Feared She 'May Not See Next Christmas'
Tennis legend Martina Navratilova, who was diagnosed with breast and throat cancer, has declared that she is cancer-free in an interview with Piers Morgan on TalkTV. The 66-year-old Czechoslovakia-born naturalised American had in January told Tennis.com about the cancer diagnosis but added they were both treatable. It was not the first time the 18-time Grand Slam singles champion had been diagnosed with cancer -- in 2010 she had breast cancer but was assessed as being clear six months later. "The double whammy is serious, but fixable, and I'm hoping for a favourable outcome," she said. "It's going to stink for a while, but I'll fight with all I have got."
