Martina Navratilova, one of the greatest tennis players, said Tuesday that she is “cancer free” after being diagnosed in November.
“As far as they (the doctors) know, I am cancer-free. I was in a total panic for three days thinking I may not see next Christmas,” Navratilova told Piers Morgan on Talk TV.
“The bucket list came into my mind of all the things I wanted to do,” she said.
Navratilova, who had been suffering from throat and breast cancer, won 59 Grand Slam singles and doubles titles during her career.
The 66-year-old Czech-American tennis legend also was previously diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010 and completed her treatment in the same year.
