Chris Evert’s second round against cancer

In the ebb and flow of life’s challenges, Evert has faced a familiar adversary earlier as well. In 2021, she had an early-stage ovarian cancer diagnosis. However, she beat it and showcased her indomitable spirit. Fast forward to the present, and the tennis luminary finds herself in a renewed battle against the relentless foe.

Evert, however, remains undeterred and she keeps sharing her journey with a candid openness. Instagram serves as her medium where she documents not only triumphant returns to the tennis court but also the less glamorous yet equally courageous moments. She has been posting about her chemotherapy sessions as well.
