Tennis Legend Björn Borg Reveals Prostate Cancer in Upcoming Autobiography

Tennis legend Björn Borg reveals in his upcoming autobiography "Heartbeat," co-written with his wife Patricia, that he has been diagnosed with prostate cancer. The book, set to be released on September 18, has been kept under strict secrecy, but early listings on Italian digital bookstores have disclosed his illness. Borg, who won 11 Grand Slam titles including five consecutive Wimbledon championships, has kept his battle with cancer private until now. The autobiography will be published in multiple countries including Sweden, the USA, UK, Australia, and Italy. Swedish publisher Norstedts has not officially confirmed the cancer details despite the information circulating online. Borg plans limited media appearances to promote the book, which also covers his tennis career and personal life.
